Introducing our first ever QantasLink @Airbus A220, fresh out of the paint shop 🎨 The aircraft is set to arrive in Australia before the end of the year and is the first of 29 A220s coming to the Qantas Group as part of its domestic fleet renewal program. The next-generation A220s have double the range of the Boeing 717s they’re gradually replacing, use less fuel, and are capable of flying direct between any two cities or towns in Australia. The first A220 features a striking livery design and is the sixth aircraft to join Qantas’ Flying Art Series, which has showcased Aboriginal art since 1994’s Wunala Dreaming in partnership with @balarinjidesign. Around 100 painters worked on the livery for two weeks, which features 20,000 dots and is based on artwork by senior Pitjantjatjara artist Maringka Baker. Telling the Dreaming story of two sisters who travel across remote Australia together, covering vast distances to find their way home, the aircraft is named after the artwork “Minyma Kutjara Tjukurpa - The Two Sisters Creation Story".

40 years of Balarinji partnering @Qantas Thank you Qantas for another beautiful collaboration and congrats to Maringka Baker, her family, Tjungu Palya Arts, @CopyrightAgency and @Airbus #flyingart #Indigenous #MinymaKutjaraTjukurpa

@BBoyerMP This is so important

It was humbling this morning to be in a room with nearly 250 of our newly minted Autism Inclusion Teachers. This inaugural conference is an opportunity for these educators to share their experience, learn from others and be inspired by professionals from outside the school system. This $28m investment in our public education is a world first and I’m proud of what we have achieved so far. It’s an important part of our autism strategy led by @emsbourke, Assistant Minister for Autism. Thanks to all those who came this morning, especially those travelling from our regions.

From our football community to yours, Happy Indigenous Football Week® 2023!! This year we are celebrating li-ngambala wiji, from the Yanyuwa language of Borroloola in the Northern Territory, meaning ‘community’. jmf.org.au #IFW23

Unlike the failed federal Voice, the government didn't need to alter South Australia's Constitution to create the advisory body. Read more: hubs.li/Q026mGg10

A Statement for Our People and Country.

More than 5.6 million Australians voted “Yes” in last week’s Referendum for the recognition of Indigenous Australians in our Constitution and a “Voice” to Parliament and Government on matters concerning them. Those millions are a good base to build upon for change in the future.
