In the resource provided it gives an example of the "Acknowledgement of Country"...
Stradbroke Early Learning Centre would like to pay respect
to and acknowledge the Minjerribah Moorgumpin people,
who are the traditional owners of the land on which we
operate.

We acknowledge the deep feeling of attachment and
relationship that Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait
Islander peoples have to their land.

Stradbroke Early Learning Centre is an inclusive centre
that appreciates and respects all groups and cultures and
incorporates learning and activities for children to grow in
their knowledge of diversity.


Basically you need to come up with one for your centre... if you are not currently working in a centre just make one up.... The sample above gives the details you need to include just re-word it and you will need to find the "traditional owners of the land" within your area to include in the Acknowledgement of Country because I think it varies for each area/suburb.

Hope this helps,
