Throughout the year, we will be taking the children on regular outings to various locations within a 1km radius of the kindergarten. These could be park visits, posting a letter, evacuation practice etc. We will be walking to any location. There is no cost for these outings.
These outings enable the children to become familiar with the neighbourhood and explore the environment surrounding the kindergarten. The time scheduled for these activities will be varied and depend on the day. Times will be within the scheduled program session.
We welcome parents/guardian participation (working with children checks required) and will place a notice in the kindergarten foyer or send an email on the day of an outing.
A risk assessment has been prepared for this activity and is available in the kindergarten if you would like to view it. 1 staff member will be present for every 8 children.
For purposes of ensuring safe supervision, we kindly ask that siblings of kindergarten children do not accompany parents/guardians when participating in excursions or regular outings.
