Strathmerton Outside School Hours Care

At Strathmerton OSHC, we respectfully acknowledge the rich and diverse cultures and true histories of First Nations peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the Land on which we live, learn, grow, and play. We are committed to respectfully embedding First Nations perspectives across our service.  We strive to build respectful, equitable, and reciprocal relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities by listening to, and amplifying First Nations voices. We encourage a willingness to learn, unlearn, and relearn together, confronting biases and supporting truth-telling as part of our shared reconciliation journey.  Through ongoing reflection, collaboration, and culturally responsive practices, we aim to create an safe, equitable and inclusive environment that honours Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives, promotes understanding, and supports opportunities for all children to learn about the true histories of this Land we call Australia.    Our vision is for staff, families, and children, to be empowered to think deeply about our shared histories and futures, to advocate for fairness and equity, and to grow into confident change makers. We are committed to creating a culturally safe space where everyone can connect, learn, play, and thrive together now and into the future.
