Description

The Indigenous Symbols Rug Squares, designed by proud Wiradjuri artist Shareen Clayton, bring meaningful storytelling and cultural learning directly into the classroom.

This set of 8 features beautifully illustrated Aboriginal symbols including Possum Track, Emu Track, Kangaroo Track, Goanna Track, Man, Woman, Campfire, and Four Women Sitting.

Available in two practical sizes—50 cm squares for flexible floor layouts and 1 m squares for larger group zones—these pieces help teachers create inviting yarning circles, reading corners, guided learning spaces, and culturally respectful meeting areas with ease.

Designed for busy early learning environments, each rug square is made from a durable 9 mm cut-nylon pile that feels soft underfoot while standing up to daily use. The heavy-duty, non-slip TPR backing keeps each square securely in place, even during active group times, while the serged, no-pull edges ensure long-lasting strength and a clean, professional finish.

Easy to move, and endlessly versatile, teachers can quickly reconfigure the squares for storytelling sessions, small-group rotations, path-making, or as visual symbols to support transitions and behaviour routines. A beautiful, functional way to embed culture, belonging, and purposeful learning into every day.
