Our vision is: 

•A future where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are actively recognised as being the First Nations peoples of Australia.  •For all Australians to embrace Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders, past, present and future, for the wisdom and knowledge they hold and share; and to support emerging leaders in local communities.  •For Cricklewood Child Care Centre and Kindergarten to be contributing to an Australia, where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff, children and families feel a sense of belonging and strong connections with Bunurong Community and Country; where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' cultural identities are respected and cultural safety is fostered in all learning environments; and where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children are actively recognised and nurtured as the creators, thinkers and doers of today and tomorrow.  •For Cricklewood and our local Bunurong Community to work in partnership in educating our children and staff of local indigenous history.   •For a national community that embraces unity between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and other Australians, and a national culture that represents equality and equity, truthful acceptanceof our shared historyand removal of negative race relations.  •For our centre to foster equal and equitable education opportunities and outcomes, for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander stakeholders, and an inclusive and diverse workplace that is not just culturally safe, but culturally rich and proud.
