On Wednesday the 1st November, Corrimal High School and artists Lani Balzan and Aunty May officially opened the local and cultural narrative piece which students have been designing over the last term. Lani, Aunty May and a small group of students worked collaboratively to create an outstanding mural depicting Birri Birri (Whale) using the ocean and sunset in the background. The piece was unveiled to staff, students and community during a small luncheon for those who contributed to the final artwork.
Staff, students and community members had the opportunity to add their hand print to the final painting representing our coming together and the integral role all three groups have in education.

Corrimal High School stands on the traditional lands of the Wadi Wadi people of the Dharawal nation. We acknowledge and pay our respect to all clans and groups of the Dharawal nation – the Wodi Wodi of Kangaroo Valley to Lake Illawarra, the Bong Bong of Mossvale, the Allowrie of Lake Illawarra to Fairy Meadow, the Murra Murra of Kiama, the Jerrungarah of Kiama to Shoalhaven heads, the Thoura of Towradgi to Stanwell Park, the Gweagal of Otford to Cronulla, the Bidgegal of Botany Bay and the Gubbitch Ditch of Campbelltown to Tahmoor. We remember and respect their past, present and future connections to this land. We honour their descendants, who stand with us today as part of our school community and we value the spiritual and cultural traditions they celebrate. We pay our respects to the young generations and future elders as they are the strength that will keep these traditions and dreaming alive. We also extend this respect to all those in our community.
