As part of National Reconciliation Week this year, on Friday May 31st, we are encouraging all CMS students and teachers to take part in a yellow-themed dress day to raise funds for First Nations organisation, Children’s Ground.

The National Reconciliation Week theme for 2024, Now More Than Ever, is a reminder to all of us that no matter what, the fight for justice and the rights of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people will —and must —continue. That is why our school has chosen to participate in Children’s Ground’s ‘Wear It Yellow’ day.

As part of ‘Wear It Yellow Day’, students will engage with National Reconciliation Week learning materials and have vibrant discussions about First Nations culture and history.

We kindly remind families, students and teachers who take part to donate what you can to Children’s Ground via this link https://wearityellow.org.au/c-montessori-school, scanning the QR code on the flyers around the school OR bring a gold coin donation on the day!
