At Little Wildlings, reconciliation lives in our daily rhythm. It is in the way we listen, walk gently on Country, and honour the stories, landscapes, nature and First Nations People that have been here since time immemorial. Â Â Our vision for reconciliation is for our staff to learn about reconciliation in education in order to nurture a generation of children who walk the land with respect, curiosity, and care. Children who know whose Country they are on, and who understand that they, too, have a role in caring with Country. Â Â
Guided by our values of connection, curiosity, respect, and empowerment, we commit to: Â Learning with our local First Nations community and Elders as cultural guides and co-teachers. Â Creating meaningful moments of acknowledgment through shared yarning, songs, and stories. Â
Ensuring that our relationship with Country is reciprocal; one of listening, learning, and responsibility. Â Â
Reconciliation for us is not an event or a project. It is a living, breathing practice which grows as our knowledge does, grounded in place, shaped by community, and carried forward by both ourselves, and our little wildlings. Â Â Â Â Â Â
