ACKNOWLEDGEMENT TO COUNTRY
Auburn Kindergarten and Child Care Centre would like to acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the traditional custodians of the land.
As part of our programs all children participate in learning about Aboriginal culture. Children also participate in an acknowledgement to country as part of the group meetings.
“We at Auburn would like to say thank you to the Wurundjeri peoples of the Kulin Nation.
We are grateful to be learning on Wurundjeri land.
We promise to take care of it, the animals, and people too.
We will do this with our heads, hands and hearts.
