We have not put that in the title, and here is why.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Aboriginal Flag was designed in 1971 by Harold Thomas, a Luritja man, and the Commonwealth acquired the copyright in January 2022 so it can be used freely. A packet of red, yellow and black feathers is not the flag, and gluing three colours onto card is not automatically an act of recognition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eZart's own guidance across their range is the right guidance:\u003c\/strong\u003e work in consultation with your local First Nations community when planning any activity that touches Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture, and any task that replicates cultural expressions must be done in consultation with the appropriate Aboriginal people, who own that cultural property.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhether these belong in your NAIDOC week is a question for your school community and the Traditional Owners of the land your school is on.\u003c\/strong\u003e It is not a question a supplier catalogue can answer, and it is not one we are going to answer for you.
