We  acknowledge the Palawa people as the traditional owners, and continuing custodians of Lutruwita/Tasmania, in particular the land and waters of Mutatayna/South Arm. We honour their history and deep connection to this land and its waters which were never ceded, and pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging.
