Posters, playground art, even some of the designs on classrooms. Enter the rooms and you don't have to look far to see more examples.It's an interesting observation.
I've had some in education system fully support The Voice but complain that they are already drowning in Indigenous Culture in the workplace. They can barely tick a box without a smoking ceremony being conducted and they grow weary of it day after day, they also grow weary of it being used as an excuse for both students and associates. In one case they have been told on certain issues and activities they must comply, but that Indigenous staff and students have a choice so they do not have to comply. I've been told of similar situations in segments of the public service. At best that seems to be a bet each way! :o
