Year 6 Camp 2011
Camp Rules1. This Camp will be a new experience for many of you. It is not a holiday camp, so the main rule that we have at School applies at Camp too. That is, behave sensibly and show consideration for others. 2. Think safety at all times. Accidents usually happen when people are careless. 3. Never go off anywhere by yourself. Check in with your leader for all activities, meal times, and duties. Remember which areas are out of bounds.
Year 6 Camp 2011
Camp Rules4. Remember the outdoor code. No live trees must be cut
or damaged and avoid disturbing any animal life. Do not collect unnecessarily. Treat the camp as you would your home. Remember we have to pay for any damage.
If children cause damage as a result of disobeying rules, families will be given the bill.
