Acknowledgment

St Columba’s Catholic College and the St Columba’s Art Prize acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land and waters on which we gather to work, learn, and celebrate; this is the country of the Dharug and Gundungurra people.
We pay our respects to Elders past and present, and we extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
