The 2021 Condobolin Preschool and Childcare Centre Aboriginal design shirt has been designed by Belinda Coe.

On 14 January the facility welcomed a visit from Belinda, who was presented with a shirt of her own.

The story behind the design:

• The large white circle represents a meeting place (Condobolin) and the upside-down U shape symbols represents the people of Condobolin, different sizes for the young and old.
• The lines that wrap around the meeting place and people connects us to our town, we are all linked and belong.
• The Goanna (Gugaa) is the Wiradjuri totem as we reside in Wiradjuri Country.
• The hands represent the educators and children of our Centre and the smaller circles represent other meeting places that also play a vital part of our community.
• Included in the smaller meeting places are letters and numbers to provide a fun inactive educational aspect.

“The staff and children love the new design, thank you, Belinda” a post on the Condobolin Preschool and Childcare Centre Facebook Page read.
