Weaving

The Weaving Inclusivity program was introduced to Prairiewood High School in 2019 by one of the school's Community Liasion Officers, Tana Tuake.

Students form our Pacifica Community across years 7 to 10 are invited to participate in this culturally inclusive weaving initiative. Parents and Carers are welcome also to attend.

Please contact the school and ask for Tana if you would like to be involved.
