STUDENT BEHAVIOUR AND EXCURSIONS
As excursion and camps are conducted away from the school grounds, there is an increased duty of care, responsibility, and accountability placed on staff as there are fewer support resources available. Students who are deemed to have demonstrated regular, inappropriate, unacceptable and/or unsafe behaviours while in the capacity of a Capalaba State College student, may pose an unacceptable risk to the school’s obligations under duty of care.
Decisions about whether a student will attend an excursion or camp will be made by the Principal in consultation with the Deputy Principal and Excursion Coordinator after conducting a risk assessment in consultation with the parent of the student. The student and their family will be advised accordingly after a decision has been made. Students who are unable to attend an excursion or camp will have alternative arrangements made for a program of work to be undertaken at school for the duration of the activity.
Additional Medical Information:The school collected medical information about your child at enrolment. This information is stored electronically in "OneSchool". Please contact the College if you need to provide us with updated medical information relevant to the student attending the excursion as this may impact your child's full participation in the activity described in the form.
