We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land Time to ReBuild is recorded on, the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung, and pay our respects to elders past, present and emerging. We must always remember that under the concrete and asphalt this land is, was, and always will be traditional Aboriginal land.
