Create your very own story using these colourful Story Squares! They could also be used as a memory game if you create two of each symbol. This idea has been created by Indigenous Artist Michelle Napanangka Earl, a proud Darkinjung woman with Wonnarua ties.
This activity highlights the significance of Indigenous and Aboriginal symbols while teaching creative thinking. Research Aboriginal symbols, draw them on the stones and remember what each represents as you build your story!
Symbols are a fundamental part of Aboriginal art and used to share culture and tradition. Symbols are used to tell stories without the need for words and often depict animals, plants, nature and ancestral beings. (ART ARK, 2025)
