We acknowledge and respect that our service is located on Gubbi Gubbi Land, and honour the Traditional custodians of this Country. We are committed to creating learning environments where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, histories, and perspectives are valued, respected and embedded throughout our curriculum. Our vision for reconciliation is to walk alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples through listening, learning, and building genuine relationships with our local community. We aim to nurture children's understanding of fairness, respect and belonging by celebrating the diversity of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, and working with First Nations individuals and communities to develop our understanding of Country, culture and community. Through everyday experiences, storytelling, music, art and meaningful conversations, we strive to support children to grow with curiosity, empathy and appreciation for the world's oldest continuing cultures. We believe reconciliation beings with education and building trusting relationships between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and all Australians, and we are committed to creating a service where all children and families feel seen, valued and included. Together, we are building a future based on understanding, respect and shared responsibility.
