At Goodstart Early Learning Torquay Road, we recognise and respect Wadawurrung Country, the land on which we live, work, and play. We honour and pay our respects to the Traditional Custodians of this Land, and to Elders past, present, and emerging. We will continue to ensure our centre is a place where children, educators, families, and all stakeholders come together to grow, learn and strengthen relationships with Traditional Custodians and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the local community. We are committed to deepening our understanding of reconciliation by fostering a service culture of respect for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and cultures, in a way that is respectful of the true histories of this place. We will continue to meaningfully embed Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives through our programs and practice, and a wide range of meaningful engagement with First Nations peoples and communities. Together, we will continue to create a more inclusive and respectful community where diverse Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voices are valued and heard.
