Our Commitment to Child Safety
Robina Scott Kindergarten is committed to child safety. We want children to be safe, happy and empowered.
We support and respect all children, as well as our staff and volunteers, and encourage the participation of all community members in keeping children safe.
We have zero tolerance of child abuse, and all allegations and safety concerns will be treated very seriously and consistently with our policies and procedures. We have legal and moral obligations to ensure the safety and wellbeing of all children in our care.
Robina Scott Kindergarten is committed to regularly training and educating our Committee members, staff and volunteers on child safety. We seek to educate the wider community on child safety and empower them with knowledge to speak up against abuse and discrimination.
We are committed to the cultural safety of Aboriginal children, the cultural safety of children from culturally and/or linguistically diverse backgrounds, and to providing a safe environment for children with a disability.
