Jul 6, 2020

As we start to approach July, our inbox normally gets flooded by educators who enthusiastically starting to plan and programme for their NAIDOC experiences and activities.

We thought to make things easier we would put together some of our top tips for NAIDOC Week to get everyone started on the right path. Now, as many of you may know, NAIDOC Week historically is from the first Sunday in July to the second Sunday in July.

It's the first full week of July is where NAIDOC usually occurs.

However, due to the current pandemic, NAIDOC has been moved to later in the year when hopefully community gatherings will be back taking place.

Nonetheless, there's no reason that you can't be using this time to reflect and review and consider how you are embedding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives in your programme.
