Indigenous Students

Since the earliest human history, humans have gathered in circles to connect and learn. 

At Ballarat North Primary School our Yarning Circle provides a safe, non-judgmental, place for our indigenous students to share their thoughts and strengths and to come together for a collaborative learning experience.

We offer the opportunity for our indigenous students to learn all aspects of their own culture including language, family connections, history, bush tucker, traditional methods and connection to the land.

We want the indigenous students at Ballarat North Primary School to feel a sense of belonging and have a culturally safe space.  The school endeavours to ensure that all students value and respect indigenous culture.  We are interested in contributing to the conversation between indigenous and non-indigenous Australians through activities including Reconciliation Week, NAIDOC Week, National Sorry Day and other important dates in the indigenous calendar. 


Ballarat North Primary School acknowledges the Wadawurrung People as the traditional custodians of the land upon which our school sits.
We pay our respects to all Aboriginal people, their culture and their elders: past, present, future and emerging.
