Principal’s Update

As a Child Safe School, our learning community identifies, values and develops the gifts of each young person and provides them with educational opportunities to experience personal success.

Catherine McAuley College is committed to providing a safe and nurturing culture for all young people. Our staff are involved in ongoing training regarding Child Safe policies and practices. This week I want to share two documents with you, which are key reference documents for our staff in keeping our students safe:

• Catholic Education Commission of Victoria (CECV) ‘Commitment Statement to Child Safety’

• Victorian State Government Department of Education & Training ‘Responding to Incidents, Disclosures and Suspicions of Child Abuse’

Should you have any questions or concerns regarding these documents, or issues regarding child safety, I urge you to get in touch with me or a member of our leadership team.

Mr Brian Turner, Principal
