Second Staff Safeguarding Training
Presenters from the WA Professional Standards Office and the Diocesan Safeguarding Program Office delivered another excellent training session for monks, staff, parishioners and volunteers in the Institute lecture room.
It was an important session, because the new National Standards now include Adults at Risk, as well as children.
New pathways of reporting were explored, along with our collective responsibility in safeguarding, and how we can all make a difference when it comes to making New Norcia a place where all are safe, loved, respected and cared for.
The training concluded with a delightful lunch in the freshly-painted St Ild’s dining room, over which everyone acknowledged how much they had learned.
We sincerely thank the presenters, not only for this training, but for their incredible service to the Archdiocese of Perth.
