WelloKids is committed to ongoing learning about and inclusion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people’s histories, cultures, and contemporary experiences. Our vision is that our commitment to reconciliation facilitates change in the next generation. Deepening awareness, knowledge of and respect for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people’s cultures and histories will reap benefits in children from an early age. Exploring issues of fairness, justice, equity, and equality, we develop a sense of social justice in present and future generations, leading to a better, fairer society in which reconciliation will thrive. We aspire to provide a high standard of education to all children including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children that will lay a foundation for future successes. Through consultation we will focus on the First Nations peoples’ strengths and value their families, cultures and languages. Through consultation we will respectfully embed the culturally specific knowledges they bring from their families and communities, facilitating educational opportunities that will create a love of learning and maximise all children’s potentials.
