St Therese Preschool & Long Day Care

At St Therese Catholic Preschool and LDC, we are dedicated to fostering a nurturing environment where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and people, thrive and their cultures are celebrated and respected.  

Our vision is to create a community where: 

Educational Excellence: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children receive equal and equitable access to high-quality educational opportunities. Cultural Understanding: All children and families in our care develop a deep appreciation and respect for the rich cultures, traditions, and histories of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.  Ongoing Learning: We commit to continuous professional development for all staff through workshops and training that enhance their understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ cultures and practices.  Community Collaboration: We build strong, respectful partnerships with local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, ensuring that we collaborate with them in our programs and decision-making processes to ensure our practices are culturally relevant and supportive.  Celebrating Diversity: We highlight and celebrate the achievements and contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and families through our communication channels, including newsletters, social media, and community events.
