This edition of the handbook continues NSW Police Legacy’s tradition of community support and has the support of all members of the NSW Police Force. Thank you to NSW Police Legacy and the businesses that have supported this publication.
Child protection and safety remains a priority for NSW Police Force now and into the future. All children are vulnerable and it is everyone’s responsibility to keep them safe from abuse, harm or neglect in any environment. By providing every child, in every community, the knowledge and skills they need to grow and learn we are giving them the best tools to equip themselves for the future.

Protecting our children is a shared role, a shared responsibility which includes all of us, both at the institutional and the personal level. The purpose of this handbook is to help all of us take on that responsibility, by providing prevention strategies to parents, families, friends, and Togethereveryone.wecan
nurture safe and supportive environments that ensure the safety and dignity of our young people, who are often the most vulnerable, and the most overlooked. This is a journey without end. Every generation must recommit to the choice for dignity and safety for our children, and none of us can push that responsibility onto others.

As a father of three and former school teacher, the protection and wellbeing of children is one of my absolute priorities.
The NSW Police Legacy’s Child Safety Handbook provides parents, carers, teachers and community members with real and practical ways to keep kids safe whether it’s at school, at work, at home or out and about.
Children are some of our community’s most vulnerable, and we all have a role to play in keeping them safe and healthy.
Looking after our kids today sets us up for a better tomorrow.
The Associated Media Group must have heard us wishing, because the Child Safety Handbook provides the most up-to-date resources to help navigate the health and safety issues facing our children. It is an invaluable addition to any parenting toolbox in this modern and complex world we are living in. NSW Police Legacy is very proud to have been associated with this important resource for more than eight years now, and grateful to all the organisations that advertise within it. Your continuing support benefits the families of deceased Police Officers across New South Wales.
