Child Safety

Every child has the right to be safe and feel safe and at C3 Church Ryde, we commit
to the safety and wellbeing of all children and young people.
To keep children safe, we commit to:
● Implementing the 10 Child Safe Standards
● Providing a safe and supporting environment for all children
● Empowering and listening to children when they share their opinions or
concerns
● Ensuring each child and young person knows who to approach if they feel
unsafe or have any concerns involving their safety
As a child safe organisation, we commit to:
● Educating all staff and volunteers at C3 Church Ryde on what it means to be
a child safe organisation, so that we can prevent, detect and effectively
respond to child abuse
● Ensuring that all staff and volunteers know how to appropriately respond to
concerns, allegations, disclosures or breaches to our Child Safe Code of
Conduct
● Welcoming feedback to continuously improve our child safe procedures and
practices
● Making sure that when family and community members interact with our
organisation, they are aware that child safety is a shared responsibility and
their behaviour aligns with our child safe practices
