We acknowledge that our office operates out of the traditional lands of the Larrakia people in Garramilla (Darwin) and acknowledge the many lands across the Territory upon which we all teach, work and learn. We pay our respects to Elders past, present and future.
At the Australian Education Union Northern Territory, we fight for the rights of our members at work, and for the right of every child to access a high quality public education.
