Child Safety

Keeping Our Children Safe

As a Catholic school in the Mercy tradition, we have a mission-driven, moral and legal responsibility to provide a safe and secure environment for children and young people and to protect them from all forms of abuse and neglect. We are steadfast in our resolve to honour this responsibility and promote the safety, wellbeing and inclusion of all children and young people.

The College has formalised a Child Safety and Well-being Policy to respond to the new Ministerial Order and the updated 11 Child Safe Standards.  The College Child Safety and Wellbeing Policy is found below:
