National SORRY Day

National Sorry Day is held every year on May 26^th.

National Sorry Day is a day to acknowledge the strength of stolen generations survivors and reflect on how we can all play a part in the healing process for our people and nation.

At Trinity, in recognition of Sorry Day, our classes made hands, feet and flags with a central poster of the world cupped in hands.

The idea behind our Trinity poster is:

‘With many hands of support, we can walk together to become united’
