Medical: In the event of accident or illness when it is impracticable or impossible to communicate with me, I authorise the teacher(s) in charge or their delegate to: • consent to such medical or surgical treatment as may be deemed necessary • administer such first aid as may be judged to be necessary. Participation: I consent to my child’s participation in this excursion. I have been fully informed by the school of the arrangements made for the conduct of this excursion. I understand that the excursion includes activities that may involve some risk as set out in the excursion description/attached excursion itinerary and information. Expenses: I agree to my child returning home if necessary, in the event of illness or injury, and to pay any expenses involved or to come and collect my child from the excursion. I acknowledge that during the excursion, acceptable standards of behaviour will be expected of the students. I understand that my child may be sent home in the event of serious misbehaviour during the excursion. I further understand that in such circumstances I will be informed and that any costs involved will be my responsibility. I agree to reimburse the school for any wanton damage caused by my child. I agree to reimburse the school for any hospital, medical or ambulance expenses incurred by the school on behalf of my child. Overseas travel only: I understand that overseas travel is subject to a number of potential risks and that following travel being approved, a direction may me made to cancel travel, change the itinerary, or require travellers to return home at the earliest opportunity. This decision will be made on the basis of all information available, not just that which is publicly available. I understand that travel insurance is not provided for my child by the Department of Education and that there may be costs incurred as a result of any direction noted above. I understand the importance of purchasing my own travel insurance as these costs may be covered by that insurance. Excursions with a billeting component only: I understand that billeting is the temporary lodgement of students staying overnight in the homes of volunteer host families. Specific information about billeting arrangements is provided in the attached Excursion Itinerary and Information. I am aware that host families have been subject to appropriate safety screenings by the teacher (e.g. requirements to have Working With Vulnerable People registration). I acknowledge that host families may provide accommodation, meals and transport for students, as set out in the Itinerary. I consent to my child being billeted overnight with a volunteer host family for all or part of the duration of the excursion.
