The Mornington Peninsula is located on the traditional lands of the Bunurong people of the Kulin Nation. They are the Traditional Owners of the land that covers the coast from the Werribee River in the north-west, down to Wilson’s Promontory in the south-east, taking in the catchments of the Old Carrum swamp, Tarwin River and Westernport Bay, and including Mornington Peninsula, French and Phillip Islands.
Balcombe Grammar School proudly acknowledges with respect and thanksgiving the Bunurong people of the Kulin Nation, the traditional owners of the land on which our School is built. Our community pays our respects to their Elders past, present and future.
