    We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land where we work and live. We respectfully recognise Elders past, present and emerging.  We celebrate the stories, culture and traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders of all communities who also work and live on this land. Sovereignty was never ceded.

    It always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
