Australia Day - Wednesday 26 January 2022

Australia Day is for all Australians to reflect, respect and celebrate. We are all part of the story of Australia – from those whose ancestors walked on Country for tens of thousands of years to those who came in the waves of migration that followed on to our newest citizens.

On Australia Day, we reflect on the past, present and future. We listen and respect each other’s stories, contributions and aspirations. We celebrate being Australian together, fair and free.
