Our Chandler Macleod Group teams embraced NAIDOC week celebrations across the country. There was a myriad of activities across the group which ranged from Indigenous themed morning teas (Lemon-Myrtle scones anyone? Yum!) to visits to the Planetarium in Brisbane. It’s fantastic to see our staff embracing what NAIDOC means and focussing on the theme “because of her, we can”.

National Reconciliation Week
Our teams came together to share our combined histories and reiterate Chandler Macleod Group’s commitment to reconciliation through action. Teams came together to discuss the impact of past histories on the availability of education and the impact that it has on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employment outcomes today.Â
