Goodstart Early Learning- Brunswick West is committed to building partnerships based on trust, respect and recognition of the rights of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples on the foundation of equity, equality, integrity and respect; we ensure high-quality early learning experiences for all children. Goodstart Early Learning- Brunswick West recognises and respects Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Peoples of Australia and as the Custodians of the Land on which our early childhood services are offered. We acknowledge the ancient history of Australia through the Land our services reside on. We commit to reconciliation between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and all Australians. At Goodstart Early Learning- Brunswick West, we are working towards reflection and impact to move forward in acknowledgment and spreading awareness to others. This will be achieved via our curriculum for the children and ensuring educators and parents are consistently involved in these experiences. By enriching and teaching at our Early learning service, we hope to help influence and guide future generations whilst creating a strong sense of identity for all Australians.
