Summer Camp 2023
Code of Conduct
We ask camper(s) and parents/guardians to read this code of conduct together before arriving at camp.
Our purpose, is to ensure every child enjoys all the sessions at the summer camp and to provide an environment where they experience the full enrichment value of the experience, while remaining safe at the summer camp.
To achieve and support every young person attending the camp, we have established a set of expected behavioural conduct for you to consider and practise at every session.
As a camper, we want you to commit to the following.
