National Reconciliation week takes place next week, from the 27 May to the 3 June. It is a time for all Australians to learn about shared histories, cultures and achievements. It is also a time to reflect and explore how we can work together to achieve reconciliation in Australia.
The theme this year is Bridging Now to Next - reflecting on the ongoing connection between past, present and future.
To mark the week, Council is sponsoring two free community events:
Bridging Now to Next: including a Welcome to Country, Flag Raising and Smoking Ceremony, a short feature film, student speakers and morning tea. From 9.30am – Tuesday, 27 May at the Proserpine Entertainment Centre.
Welcome Whales Event: including a Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony, traditional dancers, kids’ activities and a screening of Free Willy. From 4.30pm- Saturday, 31 May at the Airlie Beach Foreshore.
