Introduction
It is with immense pride and a sense of purpose that we introduce to you the Stuartholme School Reconciliation Plan.
As we embark on a significant journey of acknowledging the past, understanding the present, and envisioning a harmonious future for our school community.
Reconciliation is a process that demands our collective commitment, respect, and empathy. It compels us to reflect on the histories of First Nations peoples, to recognise the strength of their cultures, and to acknowledge the significance of their contributions to our nation. The Stuartholme community stands united in its dedication to fostering an environment where understanding and inclusivity flourish.
This plan has been crafted with the input of students, parents, staff, and First Nations people. It is a testament to our shared values of a Sacred Heart School community and our desire to shape a more equitable future.
Let us move ahead together, with open hearts and open minds, as we navigate the path of reconciliation and unity.

Vision
As a Sacred Heart community, we are committed to raising awareness and knowledge of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures.
The purpose of the Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) at Stuartholme School is to foster reconciliation, respect, and mutual understanding between the school community and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. The RAP is a formal framework that outlines the school’s commitment to recognising and valuing First Nations culture, history, and contributions.
The Reconciliation Action Plan holds significant importance for Stuartholme School as it not only reflects the school’s dedication to reconciliation and inclusivity but also provides a structured and purposeful approach to promoting First Nations cultural understanding, respect, and engagement within the school community.
