National Reconciliation Week (27 May – 3 June) invites children and educators to celebrate the shared story of Australia and deepen understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures. In early childhood, this begins with simple, meaningful experiences: listening to stories, exploring nature, creating art, and learning about respect and belonging.
The Reconciliation Week Lesson Plan helps educators embed reconciliation through play‑based learning, group discussions, and interest‑area exploration. Each day builds on the theme “All In," encouraging children to see themselves as part of a caring, respectful community.
