NAIDOC Celebrations

Mother Teresa NAIDOC Day

The 2017 theme - Our Languages Matter - aims to emphasise and celebrate the unique and special role that Indigenous languages play in cultural identity, linking people to their land and water and in the understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander history and spirituality through story and song.

NAIDOC Week celebrations are held across Australia each July to celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. NAIDOC is celebrated not only in Indigenous communities, but by Australians from all walks of life.

We have attached a link if you would like to find out more information about NAIDOC Week -
