Our Commitment to Child Safety
Our Commitment to Child Safety

We are a proudly inclusive community, and student wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do at Carey.

Carey is committed to providing a child safe environment, acting in the best interests of children and their wellbeing at all times.

All students in our care should feel empowered to celebrate their identities, and our community affirms all students and their race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, physical ability and religious beliefs.

‘At Carey, we adopt a whole-school approach to providing an environment of mutual respect, fairness, equity and justice. We believe that all students, staff, parents and alumni should be treated with dignity and respect and we seek to provide an environment that is safe, supportive, inclusive and free from discrimination so that their physical, emotional and intellectual needs can be nurtured and developed.’
