Harmony Early Learning Journey Corinda

Our vision for reconciliation is a future where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, families, and communities are recognised, respected, and actively included in the life of our service.  We acknowledge the First Nations peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the Lands on which we live, learn, and play. We honour their deep spiritual and cultural connection to Country, and we are committed to walking alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in the spirit of truth-telling, healing, and unity.   

As educators and caregivers, we recognise our responsibility to nurture the next generation with values of respect, inclusion, and cultural understanding. Our vision is to create a culturally safe, welcoming, and empowering environment for all children, where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples histories, cultures, and contributions are meaningfully embedded in our everyday practices and curriculum.   

We commit to:   

Listening deeply to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voices and stories, and building respectful relationships with local Elders and community members;   

Learning continuously about the true history of Australia and the richness of the worlds oldest living cultures;   

Leading by example through inclusive, reflective practices that challenge bias and uphold cultural safety for all.  Through our Reconciliation Action Plan, we aim to cultivate a shared sense of responsibility and belonging, so that all children grow with a strong foundation of respect and connection knowing and celebrating the First Nations peoples and cultures of this land.  Together, we strive for a more just, equitable, and reconciled future.
