At Kids@Weldon, Baulham Hills, reconciliation means building genuine relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, grounded in respect, understanding, truth-telling, shared learning and everyday action.
We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Custodians of this Land and recognise their enduring connections to Country, culture, community and knowledge systems. We are committed to creating a culturally safe, inclusive and welcoming environment where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, families and all community members feel respected, seen and valued.
Our vision for reconciliation is to embed respect for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' cultures, histories and perspectives into our daily practice, programs and decision-making. Through meaningful learning experiences, we aim to support children to develop empathy, curiosity and a strong sense of social responsibility, empowering children, staff, families and the wider community to understand Australia's shared history and their role in shaping a more just and inclusive future.
We are motivated by the belief that reconciliation is an ongoing journey that requires listening, reflection, and partnership. By working collaboratively with our school community, local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and organisations, we commit to learning from the past, acting with integrity in the present, and contributing positively to reconciliation for future generations.
