Thank you to Cardinia Shire Council for hosting the Reconciliation Week event at Hills Hub today.

We saw amazing performances by local kindergartens, including a group Acknowledgement of Country, and a version of Hokey Pokey that had everyone dancing.

We also heard a brilliant song performed by Dandenong Ranges Steiner School, and saw several portraits by art Benny Clark.
