At Marian College Ararat, we acknowledge and pay our respects to the Djab Wurrung people as the original and ongoing custodians of the land on which we learn, grow and gather.

For many thousands of years, the Spirit of God has been working in the hearts and minds of First Nations people and we recognise that same Spirit is with us today.

We pay our respects to Elders past, and present, and commit to walking alongside First Nations peoples in the spirit of truth-telling, healing, reconciliation and justice.
