Metella Road Montessori Academy

At Metella Road Montessori Academy, we are committed to supporting and educating not only our educators, but also our children, families, and broader community to recognise and respect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the Land.

Through this commitment, we aim to enrich, enlighten, and further educate all members of our service community, fostering a shared responsibility to create an inclusive, culturally safe, and respectful environment for all. We proudly value and celebrate diversity as a strength within our service.

Our Reconciliation Action Plan is founded on the core values of truth, justice, forgiveness, healing, and love. These principles guide our actions as we work toward a united future—one that embraces meaningful relationships and mutual understanding between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non-Indigenous Australians.

We acknowledge that reconciliation is a continuous journey. As a team and as individuals, we are committed to growing, reflecting, and evolving, guided by our shared values of respect for diversity, inclusion, advocacy for children’s rights, honesty, justice, and courage.

Our goal is to embed Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives into our curriculum and everyday practices in a respectful, authentic, and deeply considered way—fostering a sense of being, belonging, and becoming for every child, educator, and family at our service.
