This project received funding from the Activating Heritage Tourism Program, delivered in partnership by Tourism Industry Council South Australia and the Department for Environment and Water.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Auntie Angelina Harradine-Buckskin and Tadjawara Newchurch for their powerful Welcome to Country, grounding us in the spirit and history of this land. A special thank you to Fr Brendan for sharing the rich history of Sevenhill, bringing the stories of this cherished place to life. We also acknowledge the support of TiCSA and the Department of Environment and Water, whose contributions have helped make the Sevenhill Heritage Trail a meaningful and accessible experience for all.
Thank you also to Tim Davies of Clare.Media for his incredible work on producing the videography and website for this project; the end result is a testament to the skill and passion shown over many months of work, and we thank you tirelessly for the effort put into this.
