VCE Season of Excellence
We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the unceded land on which we work and present the VCE Season of Excellence; the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong peoples of the Eastern Kulin Nation. We acknowledge all traditional and ongoing custodians of the lands across Victoria, where students have investigated new creative possibilities and developed their bold artistic works.
We pay respect to all First Peoples as the first innovators, inventors, storytellers and creatives of these lands, and recognise the deep knowledge of their Countries.
