National Reconciliation Week

#NationalReconciliationWeek is always celebrated on from 27 May to 03 June.

That’s because these two dates are significant in the history of our First Nations Peoples. May 27th is the date of the 1967 referendum to remove discriminatory clauses from the Australian Constitution, and June 3rd is the anniversary of the 1992 High Court Mabo decision recognising native title.

Now more than ever, this week is one for Australians to explore, understand and celebrate the vibrant cultures of our First Nations peoples and to take steps, big or small, towards reconciliation.
