ESTABLISHED 1957

Caring for families for over 60 years 

Welcome to the Craig Family Centre

We offer a broad range of programs and events including Kindergarten, Sessional Care, Playgroups, Homework Club and a range of community programs through our Neighbourhood House.

At the heart of the Craig Family Centre, we aim to continue to grow with the Ashburton community and uphold our strong tradition of providing welcoming, relevant quality services to our local residents. 
​
​At the Craig, we strive to ensure that individuals and families of all kinds are respected by, connected with and engaged in our local community.

Our Values

  • We engage inclusively
  • We are sustainable
  • We are respectful
  • We are supportive

Commitment to Child Safety and Wellbeing

  • Craig Family Centre is committed to creating a child safe organisation where all children and young people are safe and feel safe.
  • At Craig Family Centre we have a greater focus on safety for those children and young people who are considered more at risk of abuse and neglect. Craig Family Centre actively supports and facilitates participation and inclusion of Aboriginal children, children from culturally and/or linguistically diverse backgrounds (CALD), those who are unable to live at home, children with a disability and/or children from sexuality and gender diverse groups (LGBTQIA+).
  • We have a commitment to managing both physical and online environments to keep children and young people safe through governance, systems, and processes. This statement provides the framework for the organisational approach to complying with best practice by aligning with Victorian Child Safe Standards in conjunction with the guiding National Principles for Child Safety.
  • We have a zero tolerance to abuse, racism, discrimination, and bullying.
  • We have an explicit commitment to the cultural safety of Aboriginal children.
