This printable back to school classroom resource is part of the exclusive Philip Bunting x Gifted and Talented Teacher collection. Featuring Philip Bunting’s original illustrations, our classroom decor and back to school activities are designed to save teachers time and create welcoming, engaging primary classrooms.

Begin with place, respect and words that belong to your community. This editable Acknowledgement of Country display features a calm, neutral design with gum leaves illustrated by Philip Bunting, creating a thoughtful classroom resource that can be personalised for the Country on which your school stands.

An Acknowledgement of Country is most meaningful when it is specific, accurate and connected to ongoing learning about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, histories and cultures. Editable wording allows teachers to name the Traditional Custodians correctly and use language informed by local community guidance rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all statement.

This teacher resource includes:

• Editable Acknowledgement of Country
• Space to name the Traditional Custodians and Country of your local area

Make it local. Make it accurate. Return to it often and ensure the words remain part of meaningful classroom practice—not simply words on a wall.

Format: PowerPoint
