Acknowledgement of Country

I acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the lands around the Georges River and surrounding water areas, and I pay my respects to Elders past and present. I recognise the ongoing connection Aboriginal Peoples have to Country, culture and community, and the importance of respecting the knowledge and traditions that continue to be shared and cared for today.
