Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Education

 

ABORIGINAL & TORRES STRAIT ISLANDER ASSISTANTS

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are the first Australians and have the longest continuous cultures in human history. All Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students are encouraged and supported to reach their full potential and to embrace their culture and identity. All students acknowledge, appreciate and value Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, histories and cultures and commit to ongoing reconciliation. Aboriginal Education Assistants (AEA) are employed at St John’s to support students, liaise with families and immerse the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture and customs across the school community.
