Children’s Health and Wellbeing Local acknowledge we live, work and enjoy Dja Dja Wurrung and Yorta Yorta country.  We extend our appreciation to the Jaara and Taungurung peoples. We pay respect to Elders past and present for their continued holding of memories, traditions, culture and community aspirations. 

We recognise sovereignty has never been ceded and express our sorrow for the personal, spiritual and cultural costs of colonisation and their lasting impact.  May we walk forward together in harmony and the spirit of healing. It was and always will be Aboriginal land.
