Multicultural Diversity and Inclusion

Dear parents and carers,

At Sunbury College we value the diversity of culture, ethnicity, and faith of all our students. We are proud of our diversity, and everyone is welcome at our school.

Celebrating the diversity of our community makes us stronger, kinder and more innovative. We are committed to making sure that students from all backgrounds feel accepted, supported, and able to learn.

We teach all students according to our school values and teach the Respectful Relationships framework. This includes education around diversity and inclusion.

To achieve our values and aims, everyone at Sunbury College plays an important role.

This week, we have reminded students of our values of Respect and Responsibility and the importance of using these in everything we do.

To help us make Sunbury College a place where everyone feels welcome, respected and supported, we encourage you to also speak to your child about these values, as well as the importance of:

-    understanding that we celebrate diversity and multicultural inclusion

-    understanding the importance of everyone at school being treated with respect.

For more information, please see Racism: talking with children and teens, Raising Children Network.

We expect families to also display our school values when dealing with other members of our school community.

Kind regards,

Craig O’Bree

Principal
