Acknowledgement of Country
The College acknowledges the Kaurna people as the Traditional Custodians of the Adelaide Plains, on whose Country Tarntanya/Adelaide and the Adelaide Convention Centre are located. We pay our respects to Elders past and present, and extend that respect to all First Nations peoples attending our ASM.
We recognise the enduring significance of Karrawirra Pari (the River Torrens) to the Kaurna people as a source of life, and a place of gathering, connection and culture. As we meet on its banks, we honour this long tradition of building community, sharing knowledge and exchanging ideas.
