Our Commitment to Child Safety and Wellbeing
At Kyushin Ryu School of Jujitsu, the safety, rights, and wellbeing of children are at the heart of everything we do. We believe that every child has the right to be safe, respected, and heard.
Our Core Principles
-
Zero Tolerance for Harm: We have zero tolerance for child abuse or harm and are committed to providing a secure environment where children can grow with a strong sense of agency.
-
Cultural Safety (The Universal Principle): We acknowledge that if an organisation isn't culturally safe, it's not child safe. We are dedicated to ensuring all children, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children feel welcome, valued, and respected.
-
Empowering the Voice of the Child: We encourage children to express their views freely. We listen to our students and ensure they are informed about their rights and feel confident to speak up.
-
Equity and Diversity: We value the unique needs of every child and ensure that no student is disadvantaged due to their culture, disability, or identity.
Our Actions
-
Suitable People: All instructors and volunteers undergo rigorous screening, including mandatory Blue Card checks, before working with our students.
-
Continuous Improvement: We regularly review our policies and physical environments to identify and mitigate risks.
-
Open Communication: We partner with families and the community to ensure child safety remains our top priority.
