Happy Culture, Happy Country

Bridge Road School recognises the importance that recognition
and understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island Culture
has for all children and how it promotes:

The significance of the home cultures of Aboriginal and
Torres Strait Islander children to their developing identity
and sense of self-worth.

The need for communities, environments, services and interactions to
positively reflect and promote these identities and cultures, and to support their growth in new generations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.

The importance of all Australians knowing and understanding the histories and
current realities of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and the need
for all Australian children to grow up in a society that acknowledges and
addresses this past and present.
