Hebersham Public School Murals: Inspiring Creativity and Values Through Art

Hebersham Public School partnered with Blackbook Ink on two mural projects, each designed to create an engaging and inspiring environment for students. These murals serve as both visual storytelling pieces and reinforcements of the school’s values, making a lasting impact on the students and staff alike.

Underwater Reflection Room Mural

For the first project, Hebersham Public School wanted to enhance their reflection room, a space where students could take time to pause, reflect, and reset. Blackbook Ink proposed an immersive underwater scene, filling the walls with marine life, including turtles, fish, and even a mysterious shipwreck with an octopus tentacle emerging from the cracks.

This engaging environment transformed the space into a calming yet stimulating area where children could let their imaginations wander. The vibrant colors and hidden details encouraged exploration and contemplation, providing a positive distraction while fostering a sense of calm and self-reflection.

Playground Shipping Container Mural

Building on the success of the first project, Hebersham Public School returned to Blackbook Ink to transform a shipping container in the school’s playground. The mural was inspired by the school’s motto:
“Be Brave; Be a Learner; Be Respectful; Be Safe.”

To represent these values, our artist painted two majestic lions set against an African savannah backdrop, symbolizing strength, courage, and leadership. Over the course of a weekend, the once-ordinary container became a powerful visual statement, reinforcing the school’s commitment to instilling these principles in its students.

A Lasting Impact on the School Community

When students arrived on Monday, their excitement was undeniable. The murals sparked joy, pride, and a sense of ownership within the school community. More than just an aesthetic enhancement, these murals have become daily reminders of bravery, respect, learning, and self-reflection—helping to create a positive and supportive school environment.

At Blackbook Ink, we believe murals go beyond decoration—they tell stories, reinforce values, and create meaningful connections with the communities they serve.
