Design
Awaken depicts the rising of the sun on a new day over Country, the sun is the giver of life and provides Mother Earth with light and warmth. When the rains come, the sun’s rays create the magic of rainbows. From the rain comes waterholes, these sustain life and are some of our sacred places where knowledges are kept and shared. Awaken is the dawning of a new day, the connections we have to our Country and the importance of Mother Earth.

Ash (verified owner) –
Really beautful and high quality. The artwork is so much nicer than that shown on the website (as they said it would be). I wish it was editable though so I was able to personalise it to be able to specifically acknowledge the Countries that we meet on at our school. Thank you for having this resource available.
Russell (store manager) –
Hey Ash,
Thanks so much for your amazing review. We do offer a customised Acnowledgement of Country that allows you to send us specific wording to acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the Country you are on.
Thanks,
Russell
