Description

Introduce money concepts with clarity and colour using our Australian Money Posters - Rainbow. Designed for early years learners, this bright set features every Australian coin and note with the matching currency amount clearly displayed. The simple visuals and consistent layout help students connect images to values quickly and confidently.


Perfect as environmental print or a dedicated maths display, these posters support daily reference, quick warm ups, and incidental learning throughout the year. The cheerful rainbow styling keeps attention on the value while making your classroom feel welcoming and organised. Use alongside hands on money tasks to strengthen recognition and vocabulary.


To suit different classroom needs, the posters are available in our basic fun font and in all Australian state fonts. Print in A4 for compact boards or enlarge to A3 for maximum visibility, then laminate for long term reuse. Pair with play money, anchor charts, and counting routines to create a complete money corner that supports whole class, small group, and independent learning.
