We aim to promote and raise awareness of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ cultures and histories amongst children, families and the wider community by respectfully integrating throughout Woollahra Cottage.

Our vision for reconciliation is for a future where all Australians acknowledge and respect Elders past, present and future for the wisdom and knowledge they continue to hold and share. Woollahra Cottage acknowledges the profound injustice perpetrated against Australias First People since colonisation. 

Woollahra Cottage is contributing to an Australia where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff, children and families' cultural identities are respected, and that they feel safe and represented within our service with children recognised and supported as the creators, thinkers and doers of today and tomorrow. 

Australians will know we are truly reconciled when the past is no longer a barrier to forming relationships of friendship and trust. We are strongly committed to improving the lives of all Australians now and in the future; by demonstrating leadership in reconciliation through respectful collaboration and partnership with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. 

Working in solidarity can be very powerful - we must all play an active part in working towards this vision.
