The purple represents equal rights and recognition for all Australians. The centre piece represents five emu eggs. The emu eggs represent friendship. The position of the eggs, represents communities coming together in friendship and harmony to reconcile and work together. The smaller circles represent all the diversity within our community. The purple dots represent people movement, walking many paths to reconciliation.
The artwork demonstrates we are all from different places, different countries, different beliefs and different languages but we all want to see ‘Reconciliation’ in this Great Country Australia!
Reconciliation means… People from ‘all walks of life’ coming together to celebrate diversity and Indigenous cultures throughout Australia.
Many of these resources and activities have been developed in consultation with NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) to ensure that the program meets NSW curriculum outcomes for Stages 3, 4 & 5.
Reconciliation NSW aims to create a reconciled, just and equitable community for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and other Australians. We work to inform, support and inspire people to engage in reconciliation.
