Our commitment to children's safety and wellbeing

The safety, wellbeing and protection of every child guide how we run the centre every day.

Our centre is committed to upholding the rights of all children and providing a safe, supportive and nurturing environment where every child feels secure, valued and respected.

We are dedicated to creating an inclusive environment where every child, regardless of their culture, background, abilities or circumstances, experiences a strong sense of belonging and feels welcomed, respected, culturally safe and supported to thrive.

Our commitment is reflected through our comprehensive Child Safe Policies and Procedures, ongoing educator training, and a culture of continuous improvement that places children's best interests at the centre of everything we do.

Images and videos

We adopt the National Model Code for Taking Images or Videos of Children, so images are captured, stored and shared responsibly.

No Personal Devices

Personal mobile phones and electronic devices are prohibited in all areas where children are present, for everyone.

Privacy and dignity in daily practice

Protecting children's privacy and dignity shapes how we photograph learning moments, how we store records and how we behave in every room. Our No Personal Devices policy helps us maintain a safe, focused and child-centred environment at all times.
