As part of our ongoing Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) journey, our service has welcomed a Museum in a Box resource kit, generously loaned by the Wanneroo Museum. Designed in consultation with local Aboriginal educators, these resources support children's understanding of contemporary Aboriginal cultures and histories, with a particular focus on Noongar culture.
Today, Miss Grace visited the Kwila room to facilitate discussions and sensory exploration using the collection. Children were invited to engage with a range of tactile resources, stories and artefacts, encouraging curiosity, respectful conversations and meaningful connections to Aboriginal perspectives.
One of the commitments within our RAP is the development of an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Library. This resource box has already provided valuable inspiration, introducing us to beautiful stories that we hope to add permanently to our collection so children can continue exploring these perspectives throughout the year.
We are fortunate to have this resource available for the next month, and families are warmly invited to explore it with their children. Please enjoy the collection and ensure all resources are handled with care so they can continue to be shared with others in our community.
