Child Safety & Wellbeing
We are committed to keeping children and young people safe
All children and young people have a right to feel safe at our sites and on our programs.
Our Approach
BOE’s approach to child safety is guided by the National Child Safe Principles. We believe all young people have a right to feel physically, socially, psychologically and culturally safe.
We offer unique challenges in novel environments, also recognising that a base of safety nurtures growth. We encourage young people to choose their level of challenge and speak up if they have concerns. Our training draws on a neurodevelopmental understanding of stress and resilience that prioritises predictability, choice and control.
Young people of all backgrounds and abilities have a right to feel safe and welcome at OEG. We work alongside our client schools, organisations, participants and caregivers before and during our programs to meet participants’ specific needs.
