Overview

Angliss Children’s Centre’s Philosophy

Angliss Children Centre strongly value and respect children’s sense of belonging regardless of culture, gender, abilities, religious backgrounds and linguistically diverse backgrounds. We respect the rights of children and ensure we are providing an environment that is safe, secure and promotes equity. We acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the first inhabitants of the nation and the traditional custodians of the lands where we live, learn and work
