Lockhart, We Were Liars, the series follows Cadence Sinclair Eastman and her tight-knit inner circle, nicknamed ‘the Liars,’ during their summer escapades vacationing on their grandfather’s New England private island.

'Marri Djirang Nura- Big Tree Country' By Leanne Mulgo Watson (2022) Acrylic on Canvas.
This painting highlights the rich culture, flora, and fauna of the Dharug people and the Blue Gum Forest. The artwork incorporates various features of the Blue Gum Forest, Leanne's Dhurug heritage, and our College community. The pink background signifies the colour of the Blue Gum forest's bark, while the waratahs represent healing, and the leaves, cockatoos, and lizard depict the forest's diverse flora and fauna. The central circles symbolize the Bennie's community, and the half circles represent our staff and students. Finally, the tools are a representation of the strength of women.
