We would like to congratulate Jumikah Donovan and team for creating a Totem that represents CathWest. This totem will be featured in the Catholic Schools NSW Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander State Education Conference 2022 at Fairmont Blue Mountains from 11th to 13th October. π€© "This totem project represents Cathwest's connection to indigenous culture. On the left side is McCarthy campus, with the blue mountains and their resident red belly black snake. The middle is the Nepean river between the campuses, and the snakes meeting with Loyola campuses resident kangaroos. On the right we have a meeting space or a yarning circle, representing us as one big community. Followed by the rainbow lorikeet prints on the top, which are found at both campuses". Great job Jumikah and team! π
