I acknowledge the Guringai, Dharug, and Gadigal peoples, the Traditional Owners and ongoing custodians of the lands on which we walk and explore the beautiful northern beaches and bushlands of Sydney and New South Wales. I pay my respects to their Elders past, present, and emerging, and recognise their deep and continuing connection to Country. I extend my respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who are part of our community today.
