We are glad to say that we have grown to be<br />
Australia’s leading schools engagement program.<br />

Cultural Diversity comprises of people from all<br />
manner of cultural, ethnic, religious and national<br />
backgrounds and identities. Cultural Diversity<br />
in Australia is something which continues to<br />
grow rapidly, and it is becoming more and more<br />
important to communicate with young people<br />
from different backgrounds. 94% of schools<br />
supported the development of Cultural Diversity<br />
as part of the <strong>First10</strong> Program.<br />
The information in this publication is accurate<br />
and targeted. The editorial and <strong>First10</strong> points<br />
have been written by the organisations, and<br />
not a third party. In other words, you can be<br />
confident that the information delivered in the<br />
<strong>First10</strong> program is accurate and a true reflection<br />
of what the profiled organisations want you, your<br />
students and their parents to know about who<br />
they are and the future opportunities available.<br />
