Always was, always will be.
As part of the 2024 Indigenous Reconciliation action plan, VIC Education contracted Harrison Slattery Media to produce several Acknowledgement of country films for schools clusters within the North-east Victoria region. This project was a collaborative process between the schools & Harrison Slattery Media, with the schools producing the scripts & Harrison Slattery Media organising the filming schedule.
Big thank you to all the schools, students, teachers & Indigenous Australians who helped bring these films to life. The biggest thank you goes to the students, who are the absolute heart of these films.
