"Benita and I want to extend a heartfelt thank you for your incredible contribution to the Arts and Health Program at the 17th National Rural Health Conference. Your participation truly enriched the experience for our attendees, offering them moments of reflection, creativity, and connection. 
Your collaborative dot painting was a soothing and engaging activity that allowed attendees to relax and connect through art. The community canvas became a stunning testament to the collective creativity of the participants, and it was inspiring to see so many people, some initially hesitant, embrace this experience wholeheartedly."

Mari Dart, Principal from City Beach Primary School

"We are grateful for the incredible opportunity to collaborate with Aboriginal artist Deborah Bonar to create 3 beautiful community canvases titled “Connecting on Whadjuk Country” that illustrate our connections to the land on which we learn and play at City Beach Primary School and the Japanese School in Perth, with whom we share our campus. The process of creating the artworks, which offers a bird's-eye view of our schools on Whadjuk country, has been a fantastic experience for our students. Deborah involved us all in the project from the idea generation, design and dot painting - our children were able to listen to, paint and celebrate the continuing pathways and connections using symbols of meeting places, journeys taken, destinations and celebrations of all peoples. The three canvases, contributed to by all classes, staff, and community members, are a lasting testament to our commitment to reconciliation and our continuing connections to Whadjuk people and country. Thank you Deborah your creativity, flexibility and patience with us all through the interactive workshops over three days to create a celebration of our shared journey, was amazing. We loved the process! "

Aboriginal Art Mural
Testimonial:
"On behalf of Mullaloo Beach PS and our parent body, the P & C, I would like to thank both the City of Joondalup for the grant and Deborah Bonar, our resident artist. Deborah’s planning and execution of producing our art mural was exceptional. Deborah was passionate about her art and she discussed many aspects of techniques and Aboriginal culture with our students, including the significant links of the Mullaloo area for Aboriginal people.
Deborah Bonar, who was asked to be our resident artist, produced with the help of our students, an outstanding three paneled Aboriginal artwork depicting our school from a birds eye perspective.
We will be displaying our mural in a prominent area within our school."
2017

Dr Brian Davies, Principal from Mullaloo Beach Primary School
