A culturally safe and inclusive environment
Kerribana Primary School is committed to creating a culturally safe and inclusive environment where all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and young people feel respected, valued, and empowered to be proud of their identity. We celebrate the strength, resilience and knowledge that First Nations cultures bring to our school community.
At Kerribana Primary School, we:
- Establish a culturally safe environment by embedding First Nations perspectives across our curriculum, school environment and school practices.
- Acknowledge and celebrate significant cultural events, including NAIDOC Week, National Reconciliation Week, and Indigenous Literacy Day.
- Engage with Aboriginal voices and stories to foster understanding, empathy and connection for all students.
- Build strong partnerships with local Aboriginal community members, Koorie Education Support Officers and local organisations.
- Provide opportunities for all students to learn about Australia’s First Peoples in ways that are respectful, meaningful and authentic.
- Have an approved Reconciliation Action Plan, updated regularly, published through the Narragunnawali Reconciliation in Education Program.
Our commitment goes beyond acknowledgement. We are continually strengthening our practices to ensure Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students feel seen, heard, and celebrated. We believe that when we honour the cultures and contributions of First Nations peoples, we create a richer, more just and inclusive learning environment for all.
