VISION FOR RECONCILIATION

Our vision for reconciliation is based on the belief that acknowledging the past, present and future Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, cultures and contributions, can have a positive and long-lasting impact on the young children in our care. We will aim to use culturally informed practices, understandings of local and national cultural histories, respectful relationships with service families, and connections with the local Wiradjuri community to deepen our awareness and knowledge. 

We understand that reconciliation will be an ongoing journey and pledge to make the commitment to provide children, families and Educators with authentic tools to celebrate and understand the diversity of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures. Our environments will be  safecultural spaces and our educational program will encourage children to recognise, honour and respect the diversity and differences amongst us all, in particular Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ways of being, knowing and doing.

Our team will strive to use carefully selected professional development to ensure that our cultural knowledge and attitudes remain current and will enhance these with ongoing reflection and professional conversation amongst peers, families and the wider community.
