World Teachers Day
Today is World Teachers Day, as we are celebrating all of the Grandparents and Grandfriend figures in our live we are going to celebrate teachers next Friday. At St John’s we are extremely fortunate to have wonderfully hard working and committed staff, who love supporting your children with their learning.
Child Safe Standards
The Child Safe Standards were proposed in response to the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse (the Royal Commission), which shone a spotlight on thousands of cases where organisations in Australia failed to protect children in their care from abuse.
The Child Safe Standards provide us with tangible guidance about how to create cultures, adopt strategies and act to put the interests of children first, to keep them safe from harm.
The Child Standards include:
Child safety is everyone’s responsibility. Our staff have an important role in following all our school policies and procedures, immediately raising concerns, and being proactive in managing child safety risks.
If you have any questions or feedback about the Standards, please email me – karen.leighton@cg.catholic.edu.au
