Why teach all Australian kids about the National Apology?
Teaching Australian children about the National Apology provides an important opportunity to:
- consider the long-lasting impact of colonisation on First Nations people
- understand that governments can make mistakes and should apologise
- witness how a groundswell of public opinion became adopted by governments around Australia
- appreciate that the apology was only one of many steps needed for reconciliation
- learn about the impact of the Stolen Generations.
A great addition to your collection of First Nations resources
The content in this poster addresses the cross-curricular priority of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Culture. It could also be used to guide conversations with your students on National Sorry Day.
