Our Values
Acknowledgement of Country
We recognise the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation and the Tutungalung Clan of the Gunaikurnai people as the traditional custodians of the land on which our school lies.
Carey Baptist Grammar School acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands and waterways on which our community comes together.
We pay our deepest respects to the elders and ancestors of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation, whose Country is home to our Kew, Donvale and Bulleen campuses, and the Tutungalung Clan of the Gunaikurnai people, where Camp Toonallook lies.
We recognise that the land on which we live, work and play on always was and always will be the land of First Nations peoples. We share an ongoing commitment to a connection to Country and strengthening relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, moving forward in ways that contribute to positive change.
As part of our commitment to the safety and wellbeing of all children in our care, we aim to provide a culturally safe environment for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children. All children at Carey are able and encouraged to express and understand their culture and feel proud of their cultural and linguistic backgrounds.
We are an inclusive school, and part of that includes ensuring our staff, students and community understand, respect and value the First Nations people of Australia and prioritise the wellbeing and safety of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, staff and families.
Acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the Country on which our school was built.
