Artists story ~
"Yirrikipayi (crocodile) 🐊 is my totem from the Tiwi Islands. It has been passed down from our great grandfather, grandfather and fathers. In Tiwi history we follow our father's side for our totem and our tribe is Tarnikinni (flying fox) 🦇 and my skin group is sun ☀️ - from my mother's side"
A former graduate of Haileybury Rendall School - Phylly was a recipient of our Higher Attire initiative and has her graduation photo featured on our home page.
Phylly now works at Wurrumiyanga as an Education Assistant and is deepening her knowledge of Tiwi language, playing football in the TIFL and NTFL and caring for family.

We have teamed up with Leah, founder of Nurturing Nature Cards to make this project possible. You can plant the card in your favourite place in the garden to discover Swan River Daisies! Comes with a matching envelope that is made out of 100% recycled paper!
* Phylly is paid $1 per card ordered. Any additional proceeds are further invested into our Career Pathways initiatives for young Indigenous leaders.

Young people have so much to share, if we can create safe places and cultural spaces for them. We are grateful to Phylly for sharing her story, and for all she is doing to be Lighting the Way for the next generation ✨
