As part of our continued Reconciliation Action Plan journey, the Catholic Diocese of Maitland-Newcastle and CatholicCare Social Services sponsored a tent at Awabakal LTD's NAIDOC Week celebration this year.

As part of the event, staff joined the community at Civic Park for a special flag-raising ceremony before marching to Foreshore Park for a community festival. At our tent, we hosted a number of activities for children and families to enjoy. 

It was a great opportunity for everyone to come together and celebrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture.
