ART HAS been the key to creating a reconciliation message between young Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people at a Geelong school.
The Spreading the Message project allowed enhanced relationships to be built between young people from both backgrounds in the G21 region.
G21 Alliance chief Elaine Carbines said the project was designed to offer young people a platform to contribute towards reconciliation and social inclusion.
As part of Spreading the Message, 15 Aboriginal students from Northern Bay College developed and created painted bollards illustrating and sharing their cultural story at Narana Creations.
The bollards will be displayed at the two Northern Bay campuses to highlight and share Aboriginal culture and individual stories through the wider community.
Launched this week, a book and social media clip based on the project have been developed for use in schools across the region.
