National Sorry Day recognises the impact of Australian historical policies, practices and attitudes on First Nations people.

Honouring the ongoing survival of the world's oldest living Culture, the Whitehorse Sorry Day Flag Raising Ceremony, demonstrates Councils acknowledgement of past injustices and support for Reconciliation. In the spirit of Reconciliation, the event is led by a Wurundjeri Elder and Councillor.
