NAIDOC Week

NAIDOC (National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee) celebrations are held across Australia in July of each year to celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. It is an opportunity to acknowledge and celebrate the richness of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture and heritage.

NAIDOC Week allows us to celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People and recognise the valuable contribution to our community.

This year's theme is 'For Our Elders.'

Our official Flag Raising Ceremony was held at 10.30am held at 70 Central Avenue, Oran Park on Tuesday 4 July 2023.
