Are you ready to celebrate ? Here are some resources to help.

NAIDOC Week is coming up in July!

For Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, NAIDOC Week is a soul-deep celebration - a time to connect with community, celebrate culture, and honour the strength, resilience, and achievements of First Nations peoples.

This year's theme, 50 Years of Deadly, celebrates five decades of culture, leadership, achievement, and survival.

In Aboriginal communities, deadly is a term of high praise. It means excellent, inspiring, strong, and worthy of celebration. More than a compliment, it is a language of pride and resilience.

As we prepare for NAIDOC Week, 5 - 12 July, we honour the Elders, advocates, artists, leaders, and communities who have carried this movement forward. We celebrate the many ways Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples continue to enrich our churches, communities, and nation, while standing strong in the face of ongoing racism, violence, and injustice.

How will you and your community celebrate NAIDOC Week this year? We'd love for you to join us as we listen, learn, celebrate, and take action together.
