Dookie campus is an agricultural facility set on the tranquil rolling hills between Shepparton and Benalla in Victoria, Australia.
We acknowledge and pay respect to the traditional owners of country, their elders past and present and for their ongoing custodial care of this place. This includes the Yorta Yorta but also to the near south the Tuangwurrung of the Kulin peoples.
