As you read through this booklet, I hope you can also feel our love and respect for all the Indigenous students at SCEGGS and their families.<\/p>\n<p>This booklet is the result of a wonderful collaboration between the staff of the school, Indigenous students and our Reconciliation Action Plan committees. I hope it captures fully our commitment to reconciliation and a just, equitable society, and most importantly the actions we might be able to take next to play our part in achieving this.<\/p>\n<p>I think it is a beautiful document, with striking imagery of school life and some symbols of our journey with all our students. The online version begins with a lovely video of an Acknowledgement of Country performed on the lawn by some of our Kindergarten students several years ago. From the visual symbols on the front cover, representing the long journey and reciprocity of reconciliation, to the meeting place and walking tracks on the back, which acknowledge the mobs and Countries of the Indigenous girls at SCEGGS, there is much for us all to learn about our shared histories, cultures and achievements.<\/p>\n<p>This booklet continues our exploration of how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia. As Aunty Viv Freeman invites us all to do, \u201cwalk beside us on this journey of reconciliation\u201d.
