7. Parent Helpers Our parents and volunteers are crucial part to our camp success. Their role is to work alongside the teaching staff or with camp instructors; following the programme or activity. They will be based on the same activity for the day. They will be trained around the safety aspects and will be our ‘experts’. Teachers will be roaming to support these activities and relieve parents when needed. No alcohol, drugs or smoking is permitted. The expectation is that overnight parent helpers stay at the camp the whole time.

15. Student Safety Our behaviour management structure is the same at camp as it is at school and will be underpinned by the KERI values. If we have concerns with a child’s behaviour, comprising the safety of themselves or others around them, we may call parents to come and collect their child. If a child is feeling homesick we will encourage and comfort them onsite. We believe that this is a great opportunity to build students resilience, independence and social skills. Teachers will only call parents as a last option in this situation. Camp Leaders: Camp 1: Sheree McLeish, Camp 2: Rhian Storey
