The Ranges Child Care Centre

Our vision for reconciliation at The Ranges Early Learning & Care Centre is to continue our ongoing commitment, acknowledging that generations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and wider Australians have fought hard for meaningful equitable and equal change and into the future more reconciliation work needs to be done. 

In a just, equal, equitable and reconciled Australia, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children will have the same life outcomes and choices as non-Indigenous children. Through educating children, staff and families about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, cultures and histories, we will develop minds young and old alike to greater equality and equity for all. 

We strive for a fairer Australia and believe that "Reconciliation isn't a single moment or place in time. It's lots of small, consistent steps, some big strides, and sometimes unfortunate backwards steps...." (Karen Mundine - Chief Executive Officer, Reconciliation Australia).

We continue to respectfully embed Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives into the daily routine and build meaningful relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We seek to provide opportunities within our Service to work in consultation and collaboration with First Nations peoples and commit to supporting children, educators, families and the wider community and continue our reconciliation journey.
