E mihi tēnei ki te mana whenua e ngā Iwi Moemoea, e ngā kaitiaki ō tenei whenua.
I pay my deepest respects to the Wurundjeri & Boon Wurrung peoples of the Kulin Nation, whose lands I live, work and grow within. 
I extend my respects to the Yuin and Eora Nations, where I was raised, and to all First Nations peoples of this place, and worldwide.

I pay respects to elders past, present and future. It is a great honour and privilege to practice my own traditions, culture and storytelling in the place of, and among the peoples, who hold the spirit and legacy of the longest living culture in the world.

Always was, always will be Aboroginal and Torres Strait Islander land.
