Safe Environments for All

Catholic Education SA know that the safety and wellbeing of your child is your highest priority.

Every child has the right to be safe and free from all kinds of abuse, including bullying and harassment, and neglect.

Schools are mandated child safe environments with legal, policy and procedural requirements for staff and volunteers.

The South Australian Commission for Catholic Schools (SACCS) requires its schools to implement child safety policies and practices, including child safety education.
