Cultural Education and the Arts
TRIBILA is a creative education platform which provides the Australian workforce and schools with access to digital learning resources and art. It is founded by a Wiradjuri and Celtic artist, writer and educator to extend an undeniable passion for the Australian landscape and Aboriginal Culture. These digital resources are aligned to core areas of Government policies and the Australian Curriculum. Our diverse selection of resources are developed in collaboration with various multi-cultured contributors.
TRIBILA translates to 3 rivers and derives from the founder’s multi-cultural bloodlines. ‘Tri’ means 3 in Irish and ‘Bila’ is river in Wiradjuri. The Wiradjuri Nation is known as the home of the 3 rivers, Murrumbidgee, Macquarie and Lachlan.

“I really enjoyed the time I spent with Leanne on the portrait artworks, I learnt a lot! I also got great new ideas when Leanne took me to the National Art Gallery for inspiration.”
About founder
The beauty of art is being able to express what you see, experience and how you feel through many mediums. There is no right or wrong interpretation when following your heart truthfully and Leanne believes art has a beautiful way of expounding a personal journey.
