Child Safety

Child Safety Policy 

Holy Family Primary School is committed to providing a safe environment for all students and young people and takes active steps to protect them against abuse. To achieve this the school has developed and actively enforces Child Safety Strategies to ensure that any person involved in ‘child connected work’ is aware of their obligations & responsibilities for ensuring the safety of all children under their care. In accordance with requirements of the Victorian Government’s Ministerial Order No 870, Holy Family Primary School maintains a culture of ‘no tolerance’ to child abuse and to support this has established minimum Child Safety Standards.

Commitment to Child Safety 

All students & young people attending Holy Family Primary School have the right to feel safe. The school affirms its commitment to child safety by adopting a ‘zero tolerance’ to child abuse and by actively implementing and managing strategies to help protect children from harm.
