This slideshow discusses an Australian primary school's theme "Because of Her, We Can" and how it is represented through an artwork by Aboriginal artist Cheryl Moggs. The artwork is divided into four sections from top to bottom: Stories of the Stars, Connection to Country, Women and Signposts, and Connections to the Waterways. The slideshow provides Cheryl Mogg's descriptions of the meaning behind each section of her artwork and invites students to consider how their mothers, grandmothers, aunts or sisters have helped them and to see the ideas in the artwork.
