Reverse description Central design depicts a traditional elevated timber schoolhouse set on stilts, with a teacher standing at the entrance observing five children ascending the steps to enter. The commemorative legend 150th ANNIVERSARY OF FREE, SECULAR & COMPULSORY EDUCATION IN AUSTRALIA arcs around the design, with the anniversary text positioned above and the descriptive text below. The composition evokes the historic one-teacher rural school buildings characteristic of nineteenth-century Australian public education, rendered in a detailed relief style within a broad plain field.
