Lisarow Public School yarning circle and aboriginal artwork mural.

30 July 2025

 

THE opening of the Yarning Circle and mural coincided nicely with the school’s NAIDOC week celebrations by promoting a culturally inclusive space for learning and connecting.

 

Member for The Entrance David Mehan said: “It’s inspiring to see what can be achieved when schools, artists, and the community come together.

 

“The Yarning Circle and mural will promote inclusivity and cultural awareness for years to come.”

 

The Yarning Circle project was supported through funding by the NSW Government’s Community Building Partnership Program.

 

The Yarning Circle, designed and built by Simon Fraumeni at SJF Paving and Landscaping, and the beautiful Aboriginal artwork mural, created by Aunty Yiri Harding, act as a safe space to speak without judgement and to promote cultural learning.

 

P&C Vice President Michael Whittington said: "The P&C is proud to support our students' learning in many ways, and today’s celebration of the Yarning Circle and Aboriginal mural is especially meaningful.

 

“These installations honour the rich culture, deep history, and wisdom of our First Nations peoples. They create opportunities for all students to learn from and connect with the stories and knowledge shared by Aboriginal Elders and community.

 

“It's a privilege to be part of a school community that values this so strongly."
