Code of Conduct

1. Our Commitment

Camp is a special place to support campers in developing and displaying positive character values. The Mindful Camp is committed to creating and maintaining a safe, respectful, inclusive environment for all campers and camp facilitators.

a) Bullying/aggressive and dangerous behaviours will not be tolerated, including:

1. Emotional: being unfriendly, excluding, ostracizing, tormenting (e.g., hiding someone’s clothes, books), making threatening gestures
2. Physical: pushing, kicking, hitting, punching or other acts of violence, running away from the group or camp facilitator, refusal to follow camp safety protocols
3. Racist: racial slurs, racial taunts, graffiti, gestures, racist jokes, making fun of someone’s accent
4. Sexual: unwanted physical contact, sexist jokes, inappropriate gestures or comments (e.g., commenting on someone’s body),
5. Verbal: name-calling, using sarcasm, spreading rumours, teasing, using vulgarities
6. Written: graffiti

b) Non-Participation

We are committed to inclusion and providing a nurturing environment for each camper's individual needs. To ensure a safe and equitable time for all, we will assist in helping campers integrate into camp routines, but we are not able to offer alternative programming on a long-term basis. If a camper needs to miss out from activities more than 20% of the time, therefore requiring prolonged one-on-one support, we are not staffed to accommodate these campers.

 

2. Outcomes & Discipline Procedures:

We understand that while campers will try to demonstrate and practice positive character values and behaviours, some individuals may have challenges doing so.

Given that campers understand the expectations as outlined in this document, it is important that they also understand the possible structures/consequences in place should they choose not to follow them.

When possible/reasonable, camp facilitator will warn a camper that their behavior is inappropriate and the camper will be given the opportunity to correct the behavior and/or meet the expectations. If this does not occur:

· The camper may be required to take a short “time out”.
· The camper may be required to sit out for some or all of an activity or programme.
· The camper may be required to make a verbal and/or written apology.
· The camper may be required to meet with the Camp Leader or Director.
· The camper may be required to discuss their behaviour with a parent in the presence of the Camp Leader

Although we hope to avoid this ultimate consequence, if these steps fail to help the camper make appropriate choices regarding their conduct and the behavior expectations, or poses a risk to themselves or others, it may be necessary to immediately remove a camper from the camp programme.

In such cases, NO REFUND WILL BE GIVEN. The Mindful Camp will always strive to use a behavior management progression and give campers opportunities to learn and grow, a CREDIT NOTE may be given so that campers may join another camp week when they are ready to comply with the camp’s Code of Conduct and Behaviour Expectations.
