To answer you directly, Magnetic Declination in Albury is (at the time of writing this) about 12 degrees East according to the links above. This means that Magnetic North is 12deg east of True North, and Mag Sth is 12deg west of True South.
If you're setting up your mount and have a compass, you should be pointing the south mark on your mount 12 deg east of the compass needle's south.
