Kindy Patch Manly is committed to reconciliation with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We acknowledge the significant and unique place these First Nations peoples hold in Australias national identity, and recognise the rich and diverse cultures and histories that make up our community. We are committed to taking steps towards improved understanding, awareness, respect and cultural safety, and seek to build meaningful relationships based on a foundation of trust, respect and inclusion. Through our work, we aspire to empower children to become empathetic and respectful citizens of the world, and to contribute towards a just, equitable and reconciled Australia.
