First Nations People

SAE seeks to enrich the experience of all of its students through meaningful interaction with Australia's first people - Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders
SAE seeks to embed opportunities for cross-cultural enrichment into its curriculum through its Collaborative Project-Based Learning Curriculum and International Exchange Programs.

SAE aims to integrate the stories and practices of Australia's first peoples into our curriculum and assessment practices as a regular theme, retelling the stories of Australia's first people through creative media to ensure that these stories can be told for generations to come.
