At Courallie Park Preschool and Early Education Centre our vision for Reconciliation is driven by hope, truth, trust and respect between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and our learning community. We will share our learnings of our Nation's true histories and instill the above foundational values, engage in self-reflection and grow the knowledge needed for Reconciliation in ourselves, our children, their families and our community. Our vision for Reconciliation is a shared journey of unity and commitment to respecting and valuing our First Nations peoples and the Traditional Custodians of Wiradjuri Land on which we live, work, learn and play. We will share our learnings of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ ways of knowing, learning and being and respectfully embed these into our everyday pedagogy and practices. In a culturally safe environment, our actions will be underpinned by the core values of shared respect, shared learning and knowledge sharing to drive our reconciliation journey. We commit to the continuous building of relationships and authentic connections between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non-Indigenous Australians now and into the future where the process of healing has begun, diversity is valued and all voices are heard.
