To mark the occasion, at 11am the crowd gathered as members of the Trangie Central School Aboriginal dance ensemble performed three traditional dances.

Year 5 student from St John's Primary Hannah Peadon addressed the crowd to discuss what the day meant and how to move toward a harmonious future.

"I'm a white Australian who is proud to live in harmony, in a community with Indigenous Australians from all walks of life," she said.

"On National Sorry Day, we remember, respect and acknowledge all the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children who were removed from their family, community or culture.

"As a young Australian leading our nation into the future, I think it's important that we remember the truth of our past and the events that have occurred, while paving the way for a united nation of people no matter our background.

"This will take courage from both sides.

"Courage from white Australians to continue to remember the injustice of our actions, and courage from Indigenous Australians to forgive white Australians for this."

Miss Peadon said the Wungunja centre provided the community with a platform needed "to walk together in the Trangie community as one" to a more harmonious future.

National Reconciliation Week runs from May 27 to June 3 each year.

The theme for this year's events is 'Grounded in Truth. Walk Together with Courage'.
