We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Owners throughout Australia, and that the land, rivers and seas were never ceded. We celebrate the deep spiritual, cultural and ancestral connections to the land, rivers and seas that have been maintained by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples for thousands of years. We also pay our respects to Elders, past and present, and generations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples now and into the future. We accept the invitation of the Uluru Statement of the Heart.
