Children Moved Into Leaders' Homes
from Australia News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Children at Redeemer Baptist School in North Parramatta have allegedly been placed in the homes of school leaders for decades, sparking outrage and investigations after former students described being torn from their families at young ages and subjected to emotional trauma under the guise of care. Despite claims by church and school officials that they only assist families in finding safe environments, former members say children were moved without consent, often into long-term arrangements with elders who wielded near-total control. The NSW Education Standards Authority and federal ministers are now probing the school, which has received tens of millions in public funding while some teachers reportedly go unpaid — all amid revelations of a cult-like structure that dictates members’ lives, careers, and even marriages. Former students like Adam and Sam Gibson paint harrowing pictures of isolation, fear, and a childhood stripped of normalcy — calling it a “24/7 prison” — as the community demands accountability and justice for the lasting harm inflicted.
