What is NAIDOC week?
NAIDOC week is a national celebration held each July to recognise and celebrate First Nations people and cultures. It is an opportunity for all Australians to learn about First Nations cultures and histories and participate in celebrations of the oldest, continuous living culture on earth. Each year a theme is released by the National NAIDOC Committee and community celebrations are often aligned with the theme. The theme for 2023 is For Our Elders.
NAIDOC has been embraced by schools Australia wide and many host activities, connect with community at local celebrations and seek learning opportunities for students.
Wingaru Kids provides curriculum-aligned lessons, complete with lesson plans, video and classroom resources to enhance student understanding of NAIDOC and the theme each year.
WATCH
Explore topics with fun and informative videos. Each video provides all the information students need to complete the lesson and can be watched as many times as desired.
PLAY
Children get to engage with the information from the video by completing digital activities. Each lesson has three activities, and the associated game centre offers additional game-based learning.
LEARN
Connect with Aboriginal Australian culture by exploring the content and gaining new knowledge and perspectives. Each lesson contributes to developing students’ respect for diversity and understanding of cultural differences.
