**Exhibition now extended into September 2022**

This exhibition of works from Reconciliation NSW's Schools Reconciliation Challenge showcases school students' vision for reconciliation in Australia. The theme for the 2021 challenge, 'Under one Sky: Today, Tomorrow, Forever', encouraged students to explore First Nations astrology - a long-standing and innovative scientific knowledge that has been integrated with current scientific practices. The artworks created reflect the students' understanding of the significance of First Nations knowledges and reconciliation more broadly.

In 2021, despite the hurdles generated through a global pandemic, 495 art and writing entries were received by Reconciliation NSW as part of the Challenge. From these, 45 entries, spread across 28 different schools, became the finalists and will be on display on the Parliament's Reconciliation Wall until 16 September. Overall, the 2021 challenge engaged upwards of 15,000 students through webinar participation and access to the Schools Reconciliation Website. Learn more on the Reconciliation NSW website.
