Good Morning Parents and Caregiver’s,

Bennett Road remains committed to the prevention and management of racism at our school. Studies show that it can greatly assist students to develop inclusive mindsets when the school and home, work in partnership to promote empathy, kindness and respect for the diversity we share.
Together, We Stand Against Racism
Our school is a place where every student, family and staff member deserves to feel safe, valued, respected and included.
We all have a role to play in creating a community free from racism and discrimination.
I encourage you to watch the video below with your child or children. It is a great way to recognise how diverse we are as Australians and also remind them on how to be respectful towards their peers, who may look and sound different to them. Everyone should feel like they belong. Everyone should feel included.

Thank you for your ongoing support in keeping our community culturally respectful, engaged and safe.

Kind regards,
Ms DiMarco (Anti-Racism Contact Officer)

Watch and discuss racism with our video guide. Use this resource to have meaningful conversations about racial discrimination and respect in your workplace or
