At St Hilda’s Pre-Preparatory/OSHC we recognise and acknowledge the Kombumerri people of the Ngarahngwal and Yugambeh Language Groups of the Mibiny Nation as the Traditional Custodians of the Land on which we play, learn and grow. Through our Acknowledgement of Country, the girls are supported to understand the importance of Country to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
St Hilda’s Pre-Preparatory/OSHC's vision for reconciliation is to create a welcoming and inviting learning environment which is respectful and accepting of all cultures, including the diversity of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and cultures, and acknowledges the true histories of the local area. We educate and assist all children, educators and families in promoting inclusive practices and embedding these into our environment and curriculum. We will continue to respectfully embed Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives and ways of knowing and being into our practice and curriculum holistically, respecting histories and continued traditions. We are committed to building awareness and stronger relationships with the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
