NAIDOC Week at Windsor SS
National NAIDOC Week celebrations are held across Australia in the first week of July each year (Sunday to Sunday), to celebrate and recognise the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. NAIDOC Week is an opportunity for all Australians to learn about First Nations cultures and histories and participate in celebrations of the oldest, continuous living cultures on earth. As NAIDOC Week falls in the school holidays, Windsor SS will celebrate this special week in Week 2 next term.
During the week, classes will display their classrooms ‘Deadly Doors’, created for the this year’s theme of The Next Generation: Strength, Vision & Legacy. This theme is particularly pertinent in our primary school setting.
We will also be celebrating at our annual NAIDOC Week parade from 2.15pm – 3.00pm on Monday 21st July. All families are welcome to attend and there will be a special performance from our Junior Choir as well.
Following this parade, we also invite the families of our First Nations students to stay a little longer for some afternoon tea together.
