I drew a picture of Biami, the Rainbow Serpent, wrapping itself around a tree. I chose this because it is vibrant and is the most eye-catching creature. The Rainbow Serpent also represents the beginning of creation in Aboriginal culture.
Reconciliation means…
Reconciliation is important to me because it reflects on who we are and the journeys we have gone through or are going through and what has happened to Country and wildlife. Also, Reconciliation is about everyone coming together and all being equals without worrying about their race.
