Safety & Security

The safety and wellbeing of children is our utmost priority at Hessel Children’s Centre so our facilities are equipped with security systems and processes to ensure the safety of children and staff alike.

Our centre is only accessible via single entry security with fob key code access. Detailed electronic records are kept of each child’s attendance and children are only released to people authorised by the family. 

All staff are trained in first aid, asthma and anaphylaxis care and our nutritional partner, Sprout Catering trains all staff on how to ensure all meals are prepared and delivered to assure the health and wellbeing of every child. 

It is also a requirement for every Hessel Children’s Centre educator, visitor and volunteer to hold a current Working with Children check and every employee has completed Safe Environments for Children & Young People – Through Their Eyes training and are mandated reporters.
