Our Reconciliation Action Plan

What is a Reconciliation Action Plan?

A Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) is a formal commitment to reconciliation. It documents how the school will strengthen relationships, respect and opportunities in the classroom, around the school and with the community.

Schools  develop a RAP using the Narragunnawali platform to register and extend on existing initiatives, or to begin their reconciliation journeys.
