We acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land, the Wodi Wodi & Dharawal people. We acknowledge & pay our respect to the Elders, past, & present, for they hold the knowledge & wisdom, traditions of Australia. Aboriginal people of this land have performed age old customs of ceremonies, of story sharing, dance, music, & celebration, that are an integral part of the Dreaming. In the Spirit of Harmony, we look forward to, us all living, & practicing respect, responsibility, resilience & reciprocity.
