Cultural Standards

The Wollotuka Institute is guided by the teachings of our Nguraki (Elders/cultural mentors) whose wisdoms are respected and honoured.

Our Nguraki and Community played a pivotal role in shaping and developing a locally defined set of Cultural Standards which reflect and embrace the cultural essence to which our goals are directed and to guide how we operate.

We acknowledge and pay our respects to the traditional Aboriginal owners of the lands on which our offices are located, as well as other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander nations from which our students, staff and community are drawn.
