SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR CONTRIBUTORS:
The NSW Police Legacy Child Safety Handbook is a free compendium, offering easy-to-read facts and advice on maintaining a safe, healthy envronment for children.
Drawing on current evidence from leading Australian and international research and education authorities, the Handbook explains the hazards most of us know about – and identifies many that we might not have considered to be so dangerous.
The Handbook is distributed in a highly interactive digital format to parents, carers and teachers of primary school children throughout NSW each year as follows:
• NSW primary schools, public, private and catholic (approx 2,200 schools)
• Early learning centres
• Principals Associations
• Parent Associations
Social media:
• Government agencies supporting children’s health & safety, e.g. family & community services, department of education, etc.
• We encourage all supporters to share on social media
Because you care about this goal too, you can now join us – parents, carers, police, teachers and other professionals who are committed to child safety awareness – in our efforts to ensure all children enjoy opportunities to live full, healthy and happy lives.
Promoting your products and services in this comprehensive digital resource, demonstrates to families in NSW your support not only for child safety, but also for the families of the police men and women who dedicate their lives to protecting us.
Child safety risks are high, but sponsoring a resource filled with evidence-based advice and endorsed by reputable organisations is possibly one of the best decisions you can trust to return benefits for your business and your community.
It’s an opportunity like no other – can you access a better distribution channel for reaching young families and having your message delivered into the hands of parents?
Before you check out the sponsorship options on page 8, please take a few minutes to read how this Handbook (and the funds it raises for NSW Police Legacy) can make a powerful difference.

“The material is superb in creating conversations that families should discuss, and indeed need to discuss. We commend the NSW Police Legacy for this high quality publication.”
–Sharon Johnson, Member Services Officer, Federation of parents and Citizens Association of NSW
As a Nursing Unit Manager in the Emergency Department at Sydney Childrens Hospitality in Randwick, I believe the Child Safety Handbook is an invaluable tool for parents. I think whatever we can do to educate families and keep children safe can only be a good thing.
–Lorna Reardon, Clinical Coordinator, Emergency Department, Sydney Children’s Hospital
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.
The NSW Police Legacy Child Safety Handbook aims to raise awareness about risks to children and steps that can be taken to keep them safe. This handbook is a comprehensive resource to assist parents, carers and teachers on a range of topics essential to child safety. I encourage children and parents to read this together, so that they are confident an educated enough to keep themselves out of harm’s way.
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.

The health and wellbeing of our children is everyone’s responsibility. As Patron of New South Wales Police Legacy, I am honoured to contribute a message to all parents, carers, teachers and members of the community who will read this new edition of the Child Safety Handbook.
Within these pages is a wealth of pro-active and preventative measures to keep our youngest and most vulnerable members of our community healthy and safe – at school and at home, with family members and with friends, while on the street and online, and during outdoor play and natural emergencies.
I congratulate New South Wales Police Legacy for its continuing commitment to providing a copy of this invaluable and updated resource to parents of primary school-aged children throughout our State.
Her Excellency the Honourable
Margaret Beazley AO QC GovernorofNewSouthWales
I have been fortunate to raise three boys, each different and beautiful in their own way. I understand how the health and safety of our children is a shared responsibility – one that requires institutions and individuals to work together.
This is why I am so happy to welcome the latest edition of the Child Safety Handbook. The handbook is full of practical advice to help parents, carers, and members of the community keep our kids safe and well.
The latest edition addresses a range of real-life issues, from safety online to bullying at school. We want our kids to be safe wherever they are, including at home, with friends, at school, online and in the outdoors.
I thank NSW Police Legacy and the Associated Media Group for their long-term commitment to this project. It is helping our youngest and most vulnerable citizens – our kids.
Chris Minns MP PremierofNewSouthWales
Everyone has a responsibility when it comes to ensuring the happiness, safety and wellbeing of our kids. Our children can be vulnerable and we all must work together to keep them safe from abuse. As the Minister for Police and Counter-terrorism, a top priority is making sure our kids are safe – now and into the future.
I hope you find this latest edition of the Child Safety Handbook useful. It’s an invaluable resource for parents and carers, full of real-world advice on staying safe online, in the classroom, playground and community.
On behalf of the NSW Government, I thank NSW Police Legacy for its ongoing effort and advocacy when it comes to keeping our kids safe.
Yasmin Catley MinisterforPoliceandCounter-Terrorism MinisterfortheHunter
Like most parents, we all wish there had been a guidebook handed out with the birth of our children to help us navigate the ups and downs of raising them and keeping them safe.
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.
