  • What is it?
    The Paint Australia Beautiful Schools Mural Competition invites students to create nature-inspired murals that capture their vision for a cleaner, more sustainable Australia, focusing on litter, waste and biodiversity impact.

These schools will be provided withย paint and supplies by our paint partner Haymes Paint; and be given approximately 10 weeks to complete their murals on their chosen external walls.

  • How do we win the National People’s Choice Award?
    There will be an unveiling of your mural masterpiece once it’s complete, and we encourage you to invite local council, media or members of your community. Your school will be awarded a Keep Australia Beautiful Plaque.
