From the Principal
Dear Parents,
The Reconciliation theme for 2021 is ‘More than
a word. Reconciliation takes action’, this urges
the reconciliation movement towards braver
more impactful action. Reconciliation is a jour-
ney for all Australians – as individuals, families,
communities, organisations and importantly as a
nation. At the heart of this journey are relation-
ships between broader Australian community
and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peo-
ples. At Duri PS we work very hard to ensure we
have positive respectful relationships with our
Aboriginal and Torres Strait community.
