As a reflection of Campbelltown City’s recognition of the deep ongoing history and culture of this land, we pay respects to the Dharawal People, the Traditional Custodians of the land, we are meeting and travelling
on today.
Dharawal land has always been recognised as a meeting place for people from other lands. We value the traditions, culture, aspirations and the principle contributions that our traditional owners have made.
We acknowledge Elders past, present and emerging for their spiritual connection and continuing traditions as part of our Campbelltown communities.
In this ‘We are Campbelltown’ video, Elder Aunty Glenda Chalker shares the significance of the local land and gives a Welcome to Country address to acknowledge the First People of Australia with the backdrop of our beautiful local Dharawal National Park.
Always was and always will be.
