VISION FOR RECONCILIATION

At Goodstart Toowoomba - Spring Street we recognise that we are situated on Barunggam Land. We aim to maintain positive two-way relationships between children, staff, families, and our wider community particularly the Jarowair, Giabal and Wakka Wakka peoples based on mutual respect and understanding and clear communication. We believe we are in the best position to do this when children feel safe, valued, and celebrated for who they are, and that this is especially true for First Nations children and Families. We believe that by teaching all children about First Nations peoples’ cultures, histories, and connections to Country, all children learn to respect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ long history as the First Nations people of Australia: First Discovers, First Scientists, First doctors and First Artists. 

We do this by, where appropriate and permitted, we share our learnings, making a genuine effort to connect ourselves and our children to as much Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people’s and perspectives as we possibly can. We value and respect the Rights of Indigenous Peoples by teaching our children and our families the real history of Australia, showing respect for Land, People and Culture of First Nations Australia.
