This National Reconciliation Week, the theme is ‘All In’ a call for every Australian to commit to reconciliation, not just today, but every single day.

This year's campaign artwork was created by renowned Gumbaynggirr/Bundjalung artist Otis Hope Carey, whose vibrant and optimistic work reminds us of the strength and possibility that comes when people from all walks of life come together.

Today, 26 May, we mark National Sorry Day.

National Sorry Day is a time to pause, remember and acknowledge the Stolen Generations.

This year’s theme, From Sorry to Action, reminds us that words alone are not enough. As we approach 30 years since the Bringing Them Home report was tabled, we honour the strength and resilience of survivors and acknowledge their ongoing commitment to truth-telling, healing and justice.

Did you know NSW is home to 6,901 people of Argentinian ancestry?

Grandparents, parents, kids and everyone in between, the Argentinian community in NSW spans the generations snf here’s the breakdown:

🎒 33.4% aged 19 and under
💪 42% aged 20 to 44
⭐ 24.6% aged 45 and over

And with just a few more women than men, it's a community as beautifully balanced as a perfectly poured mate. ☕

Did you grow up with Sunday asados filling the backyard with smoke? Tango playing in the kitchen? Mate passed around the table before anyone said a word?

We'd love to hear your family traditions, memories and experiences in the comments. 👇

🏅Congratulations to the NRL's In League In Harmony program, winner of the 2026 Sports Medal sponsored by Sydney Thunder, and this week's It's My Story!

For six weeks at a time, their program brings students from different backgrounds together, using rugby league to build confidence, communication and real friendships across cultural divides.

Today, the program runs across NSW schools, combining classroom learning with modified rugby league games, and turning students into Peace Advocates and community leaders.

Respect and teamwork shouldn't stop at the final whistle!
