Did you know that a message stick is a form of communication between Aboriginal nations, clans and language groups, used to pass on or share a message from one community to another?

To celebrate this year’s NAIDOC Week theme, Get Up! Stand Up! Show Up! We invite you to design your own message stick and write a message to the Parliament of NSW. What would you like to tell the Parliament?

For those in younger years, you may like to ask an adult or older sibling to help you write your message.

Four (4) lucky winners will each receive a Parliament of NSW gift pack.
