Reconciliation is a shared responsibility, and this year’s theme, All In, calls on each of us to take part, every day. We all have a role to play.

We acknowledge that meaningful progress comes from respectful relationships, openness, and a willingness to walk alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Being All In means showing up with care, reflecting on our actions, and continuing to build communities where everyone feels a sense of belonging.

Celebrating our UMFC Alchemy Chorus volunteers 💙

From setting up and packing down to sharing their musical talents and other skills, our volunteers are such a valued part of the choir. We were proud to celebrate them with certificates of appreciation and a delicious morning tea in recognition of their generosity and commitment, and to mark last week’s National Volunteer Week.

This year’s theme, From Sorry to Action, reminds us that our words are important, and that small, meaningful steps can help create a better future. especially for children and young people.

At UMFC, we’re committed to listening, learning, and supporting inclusive communities where every child. young person and individual feels safe, valued and connected.

By choosing understanding, compassion and respect, we can all play a part in creating stronger, more caring communities.

Foster carers are needed locally for weekend respite and short-term support.

At UMFC, we provide ongoing training and support to help you feel confident every step of the way.

With the right care, children like Cade* can continue to thrive. Even short-term support can make a lasting difference in a child’s life.
