    Conditions of Enrolment
    To provide a well organised and safe program, the following conditions have been devised. Your cooperation in complying with the following conditions will assist us to provide
    a safe and enjoyable Vacation Care Program for your children.

1      Hours of Operation
       Vacation Care operated from 7.00am to 6.00pm. Parents of children not collected by 6.00pm sharp will be charged a late pick-up fee of $10 per 10 minutes or part thereof.

       Call the Coordinator if you are running late, held up at work, in traffic, etc. to reassure your child and give an expected arrival time.
       If a child is left late at the Centre, every effort will be made to contact the parent/ guardian or emergency contact person.
       NOTE: If no contact is made by 7.00pm, Police will be called and the child collected by its officers. Department of Community Services will be notified within 24 hours.

2      Excursions
       To ensure each child’s safety, children must be signed in at the Centre by 8.30 am, or at least one hour before departure. Educators and children leave on time. Late
       arrivals will remain the responsibility of their parent/ guardian. If there is an in-centre alternative and vacancies available, this can be arranged as an alternative with the
       Office.
       We will attempt to replace from our excursions waiting list. If your booking cannot be replaced, a full fee will apply. No responsibility is taken for late arrivals.
       During the day, groups may go on mini walking excursions in the local area. This will be noted on the program. Children walk with educators or are transported by the
       3Bridges Community minibus or a chartered bus (or at times, public transport) to excursions out of the local area.

       Children who commence Kindergarten in 2021 are welcome to attend our in-centre/ incursion and Local excursion days during the January Vacation Care Program. Once
       they have attended school for a Term, they can be booked into both in-centre days and excursions i.e. in our April Vacation Care Program. Check our programs for in-
       centre and incursion days programmed for January.

3      Behaviour
       Please note that constant disruptions to the program may result in a child's exclusion after consultation with the Coordinator, Manager and the parent.

4      Late Enrolments
       Once the program has commenced it is best to check the availability of places by phoning the office 1300 327 434. Complete and submit the booking form available on the
       internet at www.3bridges.org.au

5      Fees
       Attendance at Before School Care, After School Care and any following Vacation Care programs is reliant on all fees being up to date. No refunds of fees, credits or
       exchanges of days are allowable. As 3Bridges Community is an approved service provider, Child Care Subsidy a is available to eligible families. Contact the Family
       Assistance Office on 13 61 50 for assessment. It is a parent responsibility to advise the Centre of the Customer Reference Numbers (CRNs) for the fee paying parent and
       the children in care.

6   Arrival and Departure
    On arrival, parent/ guardian or nominee is required to sign the child in with the time of arrival. Please let the educators on duty know that your child has arrived before
    leaving.
    On collection, parent/ guardian or nominee is required to sign the child out with time of collection.
    Written permission with the parent/ guardian's signature is required if a child is to be collected by someone else other than the parent/ guardian. Children will not be
    released into the care of anyone other than the parent without this written authority. Your nominee can be added to HubWorks enrolment or An Authority to Collect Form
    can be completed giving authority to your nominee.
    Written permission with the parent/ guardian's signature is required to Authorise a Child (over 10 years) to Independently Leave the service. We reserve the right to not
    allow a child to leave the service unaccompanied, if it is considered a risk to the child.

7   Illness/Accident/Medication
    We conduct risk assessments and plan to reduce the risk of accidents and keep your child safe. If a child has an accident and is in need of medical attention, we will apply
    first aid, make the child comfortable and contact the child’s parent to collect.
    In the event of a serious accident, an ambulance will be called and parent will be notified as soon as first aid has been administered.
    The best place for sick children is at home. If a child is sick in care, for the child’s wellbeing and to prevent spread of infection, the child’s parent will be contacted to
    collect.
    We do not administer medicines under any circumstances without a Medication Permission Form being completed, signed and dated by the parent/guardian. All
    medicines are to be in the original container, with dosage showing and within use by date. Medication Permission Forms are available from the Coordinator.
    Medical Conditions: An up to date Medical Management Plan with the child’s photo and Doctor’s signature is mandatory for children with medical conditions such as
    asthma, anaphylaxis, diabetes, etc.

8   What to bring/wear
    Food and drink for morning/afternoon tea and lunch must be brought each day. The centre has a nutrition policy and treats are kept to special occasions. Children are not
    to bring chewing gum or lollies.
    Raincoats are essential every day, regardless of weather, as children are out and about and on excursions.
    Shoes that protect the child’s feet are to be worn - sneakers, boots and sports shoes are ideal. Certainly, no thongs, preferably no sandals.
    Sun hat and sunscreen is essential every day. While we try to keep the children out of the sun during the hottest part of the day, it is not always possible. It is the parent's
    responsibility to ensure that their child has adequate sun protection and is wearing suitably covering clothes. We have regular 'slip, slop, slap' times throughout the day
    and have backup sunscreen. A refillable water bottle is recommended so your child can have access to water throughout excursions.

9   9. What not to bring
    Skateboards, roller blades and wheelies are not permitted unless programmed. Toys and devices such as iPhones/iPads brought by children are their own responsibility
