Statement of Safety

Kindilan has a shared commitment to keeping children safe and promoting their wellbeing, rights, participation and voice.

At Kindilan, children’s safety is our highest priority. We have zero tolerance for child abuse and are committed to creating a child safe environment where every child feels safe, respected, valued and heard. We act in the best interests of children and uphold their rights, including their right to feel safe,



to be listened to, and to participate in decisions that affect them.

All staff, educators, volunteers and students are expected to uphold Kindilan’s commitment to child safety and comply with child protection legislation, the National Quality Framework, the Child Safe Standards and mandatory reporting requirements. Educators undertake child protection training and understand their responsibility to recognise, respond to and report any concerns, disclosures, allegations or suspicions of harm.

Kindilan is committed to building respectful, trusting and positive relationships with children, families and the community. We value diversity and inclusion, and welcome all children and families regardless of ability, culture, language, family structure, gender, background or circumstance.

We are dedicated to ensuring children’s voices are visible, their rights are respected, and their safety and wellbeing remain at the centre of everything we do.
