Ermington Public School OSHC

Ermington OOSH has a vision to reconcile with, and recognise, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and their ongoing connections to Land and culture. We strive to deepen our understanding of, and respect for, the histories, cultures and connections of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

As a service, we are dedicated to enhancing our knowledge of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and perspectives, ensuring our service is a culturally safe space. We will strengthen relationships, respect, and opportunities between our service and the local First Nations communities through our Reconciliation Action Plan. We are dedicated to working with the greater community, providing opportunities to foster long-term commitments to reconciliation between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and the broader Australian community. 

We continue to respectfully embed our understandings of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, cultures and perspectives into our everyday programs and practices. Our vision for reconciliation is to provide experiences that explore fairness, justice, equality and equity. We recognise that our Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) is a living document that is consistently evolving, and we are dedicated to endless learning throughout this process.
