VISION

1. PHILOSOPHY

Our philosophy is based on the WORD of GOD. JESUS said

"See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you orientation

atth

t their angels in heaven always see the face of my father in

heaven" (Mt. 18:10)

We, the Society of the Carme to te Sisters of St. Teresa,

understand that children in the agup of (0-18 )are vulnerable

to the social environment in which they live especially because

being juveniles they are dependent on prerogative the realization

of their rights. Therefore we need to acknowledge that it is their

prerogative to be protected from abuse regardless of their race,

ethnicity, religion or community, sex, gender identity, sexual

orientation or disability,

This policy is framed as a guideline for all stakeholders of the

CSST institutions (children, parents, teachers, contractual staff,

non-teaching staff and Management) to have a zero tolerance

approach towards Child abuse.

Thus we endeavour to be the voice of every child under our

care by promoting awareness, education, recognition, prevention

and intervention in the event of child abuse
