- Value the wisdom of and work with parents, caregivers, and our community to promote keeping children safe and children’s wellbeing
- Uphold the cultural rights and safety of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children
- Value and support the inclusion of children living with disability and children from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds
- Ensure that people working with children are suitable, safe and supported to reflect keeping children safe and children’s wellbeing values in practice
- Embed principles of keeping children safe and children’s wellbeing in our management committee, leadership team, staff and volunteers
- Provide ongoing training to ensure everyone understands their responsibilities in keeping children safe
- Maintain clear procedures for identifying, reporting, and responding to child focused concerns or allegations
- Work to ensure our physical and online spaces are safe, promote wellbeing and minimise risk of harm to children
We are committed to continuous improvement.
Our policies and procedures to keep children safe are regularly reviewed to ensure they remain effective, transparent, and aligned with best practice.
At Nambour Community Centre, every child has the right to feel safe, respected and empowered.

Our Multicultural Connections program celebrates the rich cultural diversity of the Sunshine Coast, fostering inclusion, support, and empowerment for people from migrant backgrounds.
