Ngutu, derived from the Kaurna term "ngutu-atpanthi," meaning to teach or instruct, honours the act of imparting knowledge and wisdom from one generation to the next. It represents the teaching and learning process, which is meaningful for all the teaching that has happened from this building in the past and into the future.
The symbol represents the Tree of Knowledge, showing how wisdom is shared from one generation to the next. The image in the middle shows people coming together to pass on that knowledge.
