Mount Druitt's Reconciliation Walk 2017

One of Mount Druitt community and surrounding suburbs historical events for over 20 years is the 'Mount Druitt Reconcilliation Walk'

This walk to me, pays respect to our historical aboriginal people, traditional owners of our land, that have walked across all Australian lands thoudands of years ago. If we do not respect and understand these people, we are placing them as 'outcasts' or even forgetting them. I will respect them and I do respect them as this is their own 'Australian Aboriginal Day'.

I care for the land I live in,
I care for the land I step around in,
I care for who's land and we live in,
And I care for the past aboriginals and the current people living.

This is our sign of giving time for total respect,
That we want all Australian people to be given this respect and accept.
In this we say 'Sorry' to all who had seen white man dominate and rule,
It is our one and only day to recognise the Aboriginal people and make their history stand tall in our presence.

Here are the details, for all to attend:
