At Birches Early Learning Centre Carrum Downs, we believe it is vital for educators, children, families and the wider community to increase our understanding about the histories and the cultures of the First Peoples of Australia. We will acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' achievements and resilience and develop respectful and meaningful relationships. This must be at the forefront of our vision, and embedded respectfully in our programs and practices for true reconciliation to occur.
