National Reconciliation Week (NRW) is celebrated across Australia each year between 27 May and 3 June. The dates commemorate two significant milestones in the reconciliation journey—the anniversaries of the successful 1967 referendum and the High Court Mabo decision.
The week is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures and achievements and to explore how each of us can join the national reconciliation effort.
The theme for NRW 2015 is It’s time to change it up.
NRW 2015 is a chance for us all to take some fresh action to spark a change in our school, workplace or community—no matter how big or small. This week our students will be made more aware of what the week stands for and we will pray together that Reconciliation will continue to occur in every corner of Australia.
