This ceramic and mosaic mural project has been designed to acknowledge and pay respect to the ancestors of the land on which the centre is built. The traditional owners of the Land are the Yulukit Wilum, of the Boonwarrung Language Group. The native fish will remind us that the Yulikit Willum People respected their environment by not fishing when the fish were spawning, in order to protect the future of their environment and their food supply.

The finished Mural - some close-ups
Here are some close-ups of the finished wall. The native fish made by the children were arranged in the wave along with the text that acknowledges the traditional owners of the land, the Yulukit Wilum of the Boonwarrung Language group.
