I would like to acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which we are meeting today and acknowledge that we are on Aboriginal land and I pay respect to the elders past and present and extend that respect to other Aboriginal people present.
As we share our own knowledge, teaching, learning and research practices may we also pay respect to the knowledge embedded forever within the Aboriginal Custodianship of Country
