The Story of Two Books and the Importance of Writing as Kin Speakers: Barry Judd, Katherine Ellinghaus.

The talk can also be watched at a later date, as can all FoLA meetings.
In 2017, Professor Barry Judd, Deputy Vice Chancellor - Indigenous, University of Melbourne, and Professor Katherine Ellinghaus, Professor of History in the School of Archaeology and History, La Trobe University embarked on a project that explored the work of Pastor F.W. Albrecht and the Finke River Mission.
In particular, they were interested in the story of an education scheme initiated during the 1950s and 1960s that targeted Aboriginal girls (one of whom was Professor Judd’s mother, Lorna Wilson) living on pastoral stations across Central Australia.
Professors Judd and Ellinghaus will talk about how the theme of non-Indigenous and Indigenous people finding ways to work together authentically and productively permeated both the books and the project itself.

Safe Church – Child Safe Information
What is the role of the council or leadership team in implementing the Child Safety Standards?
The council or leadership team plays an important role in successfully implementing the Child Safety Standards in an congregation or parish. To fulfil the requirements of Standard 1, they strive to establish a child-safe culture within their governance and leadership teams, as well as across their congregation or parish.
One way to demonstrate this is by positively embracing the Child Safety Standards and viewing this work as an important part of the mission and ministry with children and families.
This means that councils and leadership teams must do everything possible to model a safe culture by communicating child-safe messages and implementing child-safe practices.
