Goanna Academy acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the lands, waters and sky across Australia on which we live, learn and work. We pay our deepest respects to Elders past and present and honour the strength, resilience and wisdom of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

We recognise that Country is more than a place—it is identity, belonging, connection and healing. We acknowledge the enduring relationship that First Nations peoples have with Country, culture, language and community, and the vital role these connections play in supporting social and emotional wellbeing.

Through everything we do, we honour the knowledge of our Ancestors, celebrate the strength of our communities and remain committed to empowering future generations to thrive with pride, purpose and connection.
