Treaty Signing at Medicine Lodge Creek is the title given to two opposing renderings by two uniquely different artists. First impressions of the artworks present an immediate reaction that the pictures are very different.

Taylor and Wolf both have drawn images of the same historical event, but each…

After some extensive research into the relationship which reputedly existed between John Dunn and Margaret (Peggy) Monks, where it is has been alleged that the two were romantically involved, is one of pure conjecture and not bound in fact.

The value that is most important to me is service. I strongly believe that giving back to your community is essential. Not only is it essential for you as a person but it will also inspire other people to do service just like you. Most of the time service goes unnoticed, but that is okay because not everything you do will be out for everyone to know. However, you know that you helped your community and that you participated in the process of making it a bit more beautiful. Eventually you will be…

The Blue Gum High Forest is the main endangered species on the site. This forest sheltered the Sydney region before European settlement, and is now limited to small bushland along a small range of suburbs in Sydney. The Blue Gum Forest is one of six main indigenous communities of…
