For the month of October, Flowers Across Australia is supporting our services in Wyndham City Council, Victoria.
This family-run florist provides fresh blooms with a personal touch across Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. The team will be helping us to fundraise in support of our Possum Skin Graduation Ceremony for First Nations children.
The ceremony will be held at Wunggurrwil Dhurrung Centre for our First Nations children graduating from our four kindergartens in the Council area – Lollypop Creek Kindergarten, Riverwalk Kindergarten, Werribee West Family Centre and Balim Balim Kindergarten. Each child will be presented with a possum skin cloak, which holds significant meaning and importance to the Wurundjeri, Boonwurrung, Yorta Yorta, and Mutthi Mutthi peoples. The graduation ceremony is a cultural milestone to celebrate young First Nations children completing their first stage of education.
Thank you to Flowers Across Australia for being part of the Givr program and helping us to provide this ceremony and celebrate our First Nations children.
