Our commitment to reconciliation is to honor and recognize the profound connections that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people hold with the Lands where Kidzone Family Day Care is situated. At Kidzone Family Daycare, we aspire to cultivate a sustainable, authentic, and respectful relationship with every child in our care, fostering a culturally safe environment that instils a sense of pride and provides opportunities to build and maintain respectful relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community members. Our dedication extends to ensuring that every staff member engaged with our service is wholeheartedly committed to acknowledging and recognizing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as Australia's First People. This commitment involves a continuous journey of learning and understanding the rich and authentic history, embracing a narrative rooted in belonging, and sharing invaluable knowledge with the children in our care. We are steadfast in maintaining an inclusive environment where diversity is celebrated, contributing to the broader process of reconciliation in collaboration with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
