About NAIDOC Week Resources
NAIDOC Week teaching resources help Australian primary teachers honour and celebrate the history, culture, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples with their students. Observed in the first week of July each year, NAIDOC Week is an important time for all Australians to learn, reflect, and celebrate — and schools play a vital role in ensuring students develop genuine knowledge of and respect for Australia's First Nations peoples. Quality NAIDOC Week resources help teachers navigate this important topic with sensitivity, accuracy, and depth.
TeachBuySell's NAIDOC Week collection includes resources about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories, cultures, languages, and art forms, as well as NAIDOC Week history and theme exploration activities. Browse activities exploring Indigenous art styles, significant Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians, language and country connections, storytelling traditions, and the history of NAIDOC. Resources are created by Australian teachers and many have been reviewed for cultural sensitivity and accuracy.
NAIDOC Week resources work best when they are part of a broader, year-round commitment to embedding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives across the curriculum — not treated as a once-a-year checkbox exercise. Many resources in our collection are designed for year-round use and include explicit connections to the cross-curriculum priority of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures. Browse our NAIDOC Week collection to find resources that help your students develop genuine understanding of and respect for First Nations peoples.
