Warami wellamabami. (Hello, good to see you, wherever you have been) in the Dharug language of the Cammeraygal people; the First People to live here on the Lands where Three Little Birds stand.
We value and recognise the work and teachings of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in the community.
We believe in continuing to build partnerships and establishing strong connections with the wider community.
We place a high value on our relationship with local Cammeraygal Elders, and we are committed to establishing and developing respectful relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community members.
We will work in partnership in our educational program alongside, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community members, all staff, and the wider community.
We raise awareness about and knowledge of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' histories and cultures in our centre, including an understanding of the injustices which have continued to impact Australia's First Nations Peoples since colonisation.
We are committed to ensuring the contributions we make to reconciliation are powerful and valuable.
We believe that the future well-being of all Australians depends on respectful and positive relationships and a co-existence of rights between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and non-Indigenous people.
We recognise our role and responsibility to provide programs that are culturally safe for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and their families.
