A Fantastic Day at New Norfolk High School

We had an incredible day at New Norfolk High School with our Human ‘books,’ raising awareness about inclusion and celebrating diversity. The Year 11 & 12 students engaged in meaningful and thought-provoking conversations, exploring lived experiences and discussing the importance of empathy and understanding. It was truly inspiring to witness their active participation in building a more inclusive and diverse school community.

A huge thank you to everyone involved for making this day such a success!

We also extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Department for Education, Children and Young People for providing the subsidy that allows A Fairer World to visit schools across the state. Your support helps us continue fostering inclusion, respect, and empathy in school communities.

Here’s to creating a fairer, more inclusive future together!
