INDIGENOUS SCHOLARS PROGRAMME

EXPLORE MORE

The School recognises our position in being able to affect equity and equal opportunity by welcoming Indigenous Scholars to the School community each year through the Indigenous Scholars Programme.

Our Indigenous Scholars have the opportunity to be ambassadors for their cultural heritage, to take pride in their Aboriginal identity and to share their knowledge with other students in the hope of reconciling the past with an optimistic future.

We recognise the transformative power of a world-class education and the impact this can have on the community and societal outcomes across Indigenous and non-Indigenous settings. The School seeks to reconcile our young history with the ancient cultural heritage of the Ngunnawal people on whose land our School stands. We seek to do this through recognition and understanding of history and through the integration of traditional culture and knowledge of Country in pursuit of a collaborative and equitable future for Australia.
