Rye Preschool continues to value the cultural histories, heritages and traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
At our Preschool we remain committed to reconciliation and our vision is for a future of strong meaningful relationships between our broader community and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in particular the Traditional Custodians of the local area.
We envisage and commit to a welcoming, inclusive, equitable and culturally respectful kindergarten community. Recognising that early childhood education is a unique pathway to understanding. empathy and growth. Where Australia's First Peoples’ perspectives, presence and knowledge becomes part of our everyday routines, practice, programs, discussions and understanding for all children, families, staff and the broader community.
Rye Preschool will proceed to strive for all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children to participate in quality early childhood education.
Rye Preschool aims to continue our commitment and persistence and authentic engagement towards reconciliation.
Our vision for Rye PreSchool is to be a space and place that promotes respectful relationships between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People and non-Indigenous Australians to embrace equity, equality, historical acceptance, respect and celebrates reconciliation united together.
