National Reconciliation Week 2026 Education Resources

  • National Reconciliation Week 2026 Education Resources

    National Reconciliation Week (27 May - 3 June) is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements, and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia.

Go All In for National Reconciliation Week
#NRW2026

This year’s theme, All In, is a powerful reminder that reconciliation is everyone’s responsibility. It’s an ongoing commitment to listening, learning, and taking action to build respect, connection, and understanding. We have curriculum-aligned lessons for all levels that are ideal for extending the theme of reconciliation into the classroom.

How can we help teachers during #NRW2026?

Each of us has a role in reconciliation, and in 2026 we’re called to go All In. Teachers can shape inclusive classrooms that value Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, histories, cultures, and perspectives.

Cool.org offers curriculum-aligned lessons that build understanding of social issues, critical thinking and action, helping students engage with reconciliation in positive and meaningful ways.
