Our school was once a beautiful forest and home to the Aboriginal people of this region.
We acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land the Gumbaynggirr people.
Today we recognise their long history on this land, the land they call mother, and the care they have given to her for thousands of years.
We would like to pay our respects to the Elders past, present and future for they hold the memories, the traditions, the culture and hopes of Aboriginal Australia.
We would like to thank them for allowing us to live and learn on their lands.
We must always remember that under the concrete and tar, this land and her waters are, and always will be, traditional Aboriginal land.
