NEW CHILD SAFE RESOURCES

Croquet Victoria has launched a new suite of Child Safe resources to help clubs and regions meet the requirements of the Australian and Victorian Child Safe Standards (see https://croquetvic.asn.au/childsafe/About the Child Safe Standards.pdf).

 A group of club secretaries and club Child Safe Champions participated in the online launch, led by Michaela Cook of Vicsport, on 28 September

 

Key points:

  • Croquet Victoria is committed to ensuring that all children who come into contact with croquet have a safe and happy experience, protected from harm
  • Clubs and regions are expected to affirm Croquet Victoria’s Child Safe Declaration and develop a local approach to implementing the Child Safe Standards
  • Clubs and regions need to appoint a Child Safe Champion
  • Clubs are asked to display the Child Safe Code of Conduct which is appended to the Child Safe Policy

 Croquet Victoria’s Child Safe Action Plan is available online at https://croquetvic.asn.au/ChildSafeActionPlan and there are links to the resources mentioned in the Action Plan at https://croquetvic.asn.au/ChildSafeResources
