A SPECIAL NAIDOC CELEBRATION
The Mount Morgan State High School calendar progressively gets busier each year. This year due to working on the school reviews and other activities, NAIDOC week was celebrated later than usual. One of the highlights of the celebration was a special morning tea prepared and served by students for Indigenous elders and community members. Mount Morgan Central State School Captains - Kelisha and Radu were also invited to the celebration.

Following the morning tea, the group discussed ideas about what was needed in the community and the school for the youth. Ideas presented included a community bus and a youth centre. Greater connectivity with indigenous spirituality was also mentioned as a way in which to promote indigenous wellbeing and recognition within the school environment. Other NAIDOC activities included games and boomerang throwing. Pictured left are Blair, Mysty, Jasmyne, Chris Cronin (OIC Mount Morgan Police), Kelisha, Raelene, Radu, Rosie, Kasia and Doug and Marg.
