What should parents know?

HEALTH AND SAFETY IS OUR NUMBER ONE PRIORITY

  • We strictly adhere to a sign in/sign out system. A signature will be required each time you drop off & pick up your child.
  • A permission form will be distributed the first day of camp regarding to who will be permitted to pick up your child, or if they are allowed to leave unaccompanied.
  • Counsellors will not apply sunscreen to any camper without prior written consent from a parent.
  • In order to make camp a positive experience please include, at the time of registration, details on any special needs, allergies, personal care issues or medical concerns.
  • We do not administer medication.

Please review the following safety-oriented rules with your child to ensure camper safety:

  • Campers will not be permitted to leave unaccompanied by a staff member.
  • We expect that campers will not intentionally harm themselves or others. Bullying and play fighting are not appropriate behaviors for campers.
  • The Town of New Tecumseth Parks, Recreation and Culture Department reserves the right to suspend or withdraw a camper from the program.
  • All campers and counsellors are expected to clean up after themselves at the end of each activity.

Inclusion in Day Camp:

  • Mediators are welcome to accompany any child who requires assistance to be involved in our summer camp programs.
  • Inclusive leaders are available for participants who need assistance, however spaces are limited, so please book early by contacting the New Tecumseth Recreation Centre 705 435 4030.
