Goodstart Burleigh is committed to sustaining our vision of nurturing cultural awareness and responsiveness for all members of our centre and the wider community through respectfully embedding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ cultures and perspectives in our practices and acknowledging First Nation peoples’ cultural diversity.
We acknowledge and respect the culture of the local Kombumerri people, supporting children to recognise and respect the ongoing cultures, histories, languages, and knowledges of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
We believe in the importance of reconciliation and recognise the authentic relationships with the local First Nations community, respectfully integrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' perspectives and cultures.
