ABORIGINAL AND TORRES STRAIT ISLANDERS’ SURVIVAL DAY

We would like to acknowledge and pay our respects to the Traditional Custodians across Australia, extending this acknowledgment to all our stolen children yet to find home, and to all First Nations people across the world. Thank you to all of our ancestors who protected and nurtured the land for us.

Things dont Just change.

People change them
