Lyrebird Classroom Shelf Unit

  • Iconic Lyrebird artwork engraved by Wiradjuri artist Shareen Clayton brings authentic First Nations culture into everyday classroom spaces.

  • Six evenly divided vertical bays keep classroom resources sorted, visible, and always within a child's reach throughout the day.
  • Built from 18mm laminated eucalyptus timber — thicker and tougher than standard shelving, engineered for busy early childhood classrooms.
