Child
Protection Policy Statement
As Catholics we
believe that human life is sacred because from its beginning it involves
the creative act of God and it remains forever a special relationship
with Him. Accordingly, we recognise that each human being,
irrespective of age or circumstances, should be accorded the dignity and
respect due to a child of God.
In particular we recognise the
personal dignity and rights of children towards whom we have special
responsibility and duty of care. As individuals we undertake to do
all in our power to prevent physical, sexual or emotional abuse of
children and young people. Moreover, if we have reason to
suspect that abuse is being or has been perpetrated we undertake to
report our concerns to the appropriate authorities.
