Description

Bring the spirit of red desert Country into the heart of your classroom. The Aboriginal Art Desert Dreaming Rug, designed by proud Mandandanji and Noonuccal artist Kiz Costelloe, honours the profound spiritual significance of desert Country — home to ancient Dreamtime stories passed down across tens of thousands of generations. Children gather, listen, yarn and connect to Country on a generous 3m x 2m space — and you tick off EYLF Outcomes 1, 2 and 5 while embedding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives into every-day practice, exactly the cultural responsiveness assessors look for under NQF Quality Areas 3 and 6.

About the design.

The deep reds and earthy ochres of Kiz's Desert Dreaming artwork invite children to sit on the heart of this continent, learning the deep connection between First Nations peoples and the land that has sustained them for over 60,000 years. A daily, hands-on provocation for sustained shared thinking about Country, kinship and culture.
