“I enjoyed the weekly sessions. I noticed a lot more eye contact from the children who were quite reserved intitally and more questions (from them) as we became used to each other. It made me think about the benefits of mixing age groups also more about young families as well as the aged being socially isolated.”

We acknowledge and pay respect to the past, present and future Traditional Custodians and Elders of the lands where commonkind serves and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. We recognise the world’s oldest living culture and the strong sense of community among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and the power of this connection not only for the individual but also for society. We aspire to strengthen the communities in which we live, work, study and play. In our mission to build a kinder community, we are inspired by the rich history of kindness to people and planet demonstrated by First Nations communities across Australia.
