'Notes From the Heart' ❤️📝 ULURU, NT

Notes From the Heart is about an emu who finds himself feeling a bit miserable. He is sent on an adventure around Uluru where he goes looking for his happy. Will he find it? What will make Emu smile? Let’s find out!

Are you packed and ready?
Today, we’re heading inland—right into the heart of Australia.
To a place that glows red in the sunshine,
And seems to change colour with every hour of the day.

Here’s a clue:
 It’s not by the ocean…
 It’s in the desert.
 And it’s one of the most sacred and iconic landmarks in the whole country.

Can you guess where we’re going?

That’s right—we’re off to Uluru!
Rising up from the flat desert floor,
This massive sandstone rock is truly a sight to behold.

Have you seen it? Have you been?

Uluru is ancient—over 500 million years old!
And it’s deeply important to the Anangu people, the Traditional Owners of this land.
They’ve lived here for thousands of years,
And their stories are written in the rocks, the caves, and the sky.

Uluru stands 348 metres tall, but most of it is actually underground—
Like a giant iceberg made of stone!

Walk around the base and you might spot rock paintings,
 Or hear the wind whispering through the desert trees.
 You might even catch the sunset, when Uluru glows a brilliant red-orange—
 As if it’s lit up from within.

This isn’t just a rock.
 It’s a story. A spirit. A connection to Country.
