Information for Parents & Carers
Information for Parents and Carers
As a parent you will make many choices and decisions about the best interests of your children. There are choices about child care and where to send your child for a range of sporting or cultural activities as well as their education.
Whilst the majority of children’s organisations are safe for your child, we know that children can sometimes be subjected to bullying, isolation, teasing, harassment, verbal, emotional, physical and sexual abuse. All of these experiences can be prevented when services are proactive and do not take children’s safety for granted.
