NAIDOC WEEK AT MAMRE ANGLICAN SCHOOL Last week, Pre-K to Year 12 came together and participated in a series of activities for our annual NAIDOC Celebration Day. Students rotated through a variety of experiences that honoured and explored First Nations traditions, including Bush Tucker tasting, damper making, a Rainbow Serpent chalk mural, traditional games, bush walking, and much more. In line with this year’s NAIDOC theme, “The Next Generation: Strength, Vision, and Legacy”, our students embraced the opportunity to learn from the past and celebrate the rich cultures and knowledge of First Nations peoples. It was a powerful day of connection, learning, and appreciation. 💛🖤❤️ #mamrelearning

MAMRE CADETS IN THE LOCAL COMMUNITY Our Mamre Rural Fire Cadets recently took part in a two-day camp with the RFS, gaining hands-on experience in real-time fire operations and team-based simulations. They then shared what they’d learnt with our Junior School, leading fun, hands-on activities for Pre-K to Year 2 — from rolling hoses and exploring a fire truck to helping the little ones operate real hoses! It was a fantastic display of leadership, teamwork, and community spirit. Well done to our amazing cadets! 👨‍🚒👏 #mamrelearning
