  • CODE OF CONDUCT – STUDENT

    I understand that this event is an opportunity for me to learn, practice skills, and gain attitudes and values in an environment outside of the school.  I realise that this requires me to take on genuine responsibility for my own enjoyment and safety and that of others.

    I agree to do the following to make this happen:

    • Show courtesy and consideration to others.
    • Follow the rules and instructions of staff and other supervisors at the events.
    • Look after myself and my personal belongings.
    • Declare medical conditions that could affect participation in the events.
    • Accept the rules set by the school for the events.

    I understand that my parents / caregivers will be contacted and I may be sent home at their expense if:

    • My actions are considered unacceptable by staff / supervisors of these events.
    • I breach the behaviour / discipline standards of the school
    • My actions put me or others in any danger.
  • Sometimes strong winds or other weather conditions can prevent the group from skiing. In this instance, we would take the students into Queenstown to complete a range of activities. (We have found in the past that if we ring around we can secure good group discounts at many of the tourist activities). To prevent your child having to bring money for this eventuality, we are seeking permission from you prior to departure to use the money that would have been paid for skiing/snowboarding to use towards participating in these activities. Please indicate below if you give permission for the money paid that would have been spent on skiing/snowboarding to be used for alternative activities in Queenstown.
  • Please enter any information below that you would like the teachers and staff attending to be informed of about your child.

  • Payment

    Any payments received for your child will be allocated to the oldest unpaid amounts sitting on your child's account first. Your child is not able to participate until all these amounts are paid in full.
  • $150.00 per student - full payment is due by Friday 26 August 2022. If paying by instalments you must have the full amount paid by the due date.
  • If paying online please indicate below the date you will be paying.
