‘For our Elders’ – Campbelltown East Public School 

Students from Campbelltown East Public School participated in a NAIDOC workshop with many Aboriginal students having a yarn about the theme for 2023 ‘For our Elders.’

The students spoke about what this year’s theme meant to them and what their Elders have taught them.

Take a listen to what they had to say in the video below:

 

Never disrespect people

Never give up

Be respectful to others

Never give up Tough me about cultural

Show respect

Be nice to all elders

Believe in what I want to do

Help me shape me to who I am today

Never give up on my dream

It ok not to be perfect

Keep on going
