The Dragons are proud to announce Gerringong Public School's Camilla Addison as our 2024 The Best You Can Be School Learning Icon Design Competition winner.
Gerringong Public School was one of 11 schools who entered the competition which had close to 120 entries.
The competition is designed to get schools and students thinking about the importance and relevance of the Aboriginal history on the lands of which their school is situated and from where they are learning.
After working with local Aboriginal families, associations, and elders, the students were asked to design a 'learning icon' which reflects on this ancient history of our First Nations people: their culture, their uniqueness, and their respect of country.

The school learning icons are hoped to complement their school logo, sitting proudly with it, displaying the school’s commitment to recognising the importance of our true history.
This year, the winning school received:
- A Dragons jersey to help the school with fundraising efforts
- The Dragons hosting a breakfast and skills clinic at the winning school
- Class(es) involved to receive individual Dragons packs
