An indigenous child has recently started at my centre in my room, and our reconciliation staff member is really pushing me to have a chat with mum regarding how we can support them culturally, as a person of indigenous descent myself, I feel it’s too soon, as he has only been enrolled for 2 weeks, and as I would like to build a relationship with the child and family first, how should I go about this?
Thank you so much!
