Everyone working with Children at DPC is also by legislation required to undergo the NSW Government Working with Children Check. This is the same check that is done for teachers in government and private schools and pre-schools. Anyone working with children in any church context, paid or volunteer, is screened to have a Working with Children number from the NSW Government. We have all this in place to create an environment where children can be safe and our leaders can be trusted. The Presbyterian Church of NSW also requires that all leaders in the church act as mandatory reporters. This means that any abuse must be reported to the relevant legal authorities.

If you are a DPC member seeking information on your Child Protection requirements, or reporting, or  to apply to work with children, please go to this link.
