Student behaviour

While the focus of our programming is on fun and learning, there are some behavioural expectations for students to ensure everyone receives an enjoyable experience. To ensure the safety of all the Salmon Forest School program participants: physical violence, harassment, bullying or foul language will not be tolerated.

Parents/guardians will be notified if their child’s behaviour is
inappropriate. If such inappropriate behaviour continues, Salmon Forest
reserves the right to remove the child from the Program and to refuse any further participation. No money will be refunded.
If a student is not enjoying the Program, is not able to participate in a
collegial and friendly manner, or is not willing to behave in a way that
means other students are not impacted by their behaviour, the parents
will be notified. Every attempt will be made to keep a participant in the Forest Program but, should the behaviour continue, Salmon Forest reserves the right to remove the student from the Forest Program.

Definitions of inappropriate behaviour and unsafe behaviour are defined in
the Salmon Forest Handbook, which is available on request.

I understand and agree to the behaviour policy outlined above. I acknowledge that if my child does not follow the expectations, Salmon Forest may contact me and take appropriate actions, including removal from the program if necessary.
