Malaja (Welcome)

We Acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the lands in which we operate, the Yagara, Jagera and Ugarapul peoples of the Yagara language group. We acknowledge their continued connection to Country which has spanned over 60,000 years. 

We pay our respects to their Elders, past present and emerging. We acknowledge their sacrifice to keep the Yagara language and culture alive today and we accept the responsibility to continue the revival of our language and culture for our next generation.

We also pay our respects to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who now live on Yagara, Jagera and Ugarapul Country, particularly descendants of the Deebing Creek and Purga missions.
