Acknowledgement of Country

Preston West Primary School acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people who are the traditional custodians of the land on which we gather, work, learn, play and grow. We recognise their continuing connection to the land, waters and culture. We pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging and we celebrate the continuation of culture, through the spiritual and educational practices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
