Acknowledgement of Country

Sacred Heart Mission respectfully acknowledges the cultural heritage and enduring strength of the Traditional Custodians of the lands and waterways where we work, the people of the Boonwurrung and the Woiwurrung.

Our roots are in St Kilda and we acknowledge and extend our respects to the Elders and community of the Yalukit Willam people of the Boonwurrung and we are grateful for their guidance, wisdom and partnership.

Our work is deeply inspired by values that define First Nations peoples – community, respect and resilience. We are committed to fostering an inclusive and culturally safe environment, honouring the cultural significance of the land, waterways and its people. We extend our respect to all First Nations peoples.
