Indigenous Jersey 2022
ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø students have contributed to the design of the Canberra Raiders’ 2022 Indigenous Jersey, which will be worn against the Parramatta Eels in the NRL Indigenous Round this weekend.
The jersey has been designed by Kayannie Denigan, a Luritja woman, through collaboration with the NRL’s School to Work Program and the University of Canberra.
The design splits the jersey up into five panels, each of which has been inspired by creative writing from students in the School to Work program. The jersey also depicts the totems of the six Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander players who are in the current Raiders squad.
Two of the panels were based on stories written by former ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø students, Stewart Barton and Riley Margosis. At the time, Riley was still a student here in Year 12 and Stewart had just graduated from the College.
Another former ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø student and current Canberra Raider, Sebastian Kris, has his totem, the crocodile, on the jersey.
