Disclosure of Risk
I understand there are risks involved when the above participants are indoors or venturing outdoors that could result in injury to participants and/or their property. The managers of this programme use risk management processes throughout the programme to minimise risk.
I am happy for my child to take part in casual outings according to the casual outings procedure (available on request) when he/she attends. I give permission for my child/ren to take part in group outings.
I hereby release and hold blameless Equippers Out of School Care authorised staff and volunteers from any and all liability in the event of any injury, accident or misfortune, damage or loss that can only be made to The Accident Compensation Corporation.
Medical Treatment Consent
I give permission for Equippers Out of School Care authorised staff and volunteers to obtain emergency medical, hospital or ambulance assistance at any time they deem necessary.
I understand that every effort will be made for me to be notified before taking such actions. I acknowledge that I will be liable for any medical/hospital/ambulance expenses incurred in the treatment of my child/ren.
Car Seats
I give permission for my child/ren (aged 5&6) to use NZ safety approved half booster seats when being transported in the vans. These seats are provided by Equippers Out of School Care

Absences on a booked day will be charged $10.
Absences need to be communicated via text to the Equippers Out of School Care phone.

Absences on a booked day will be charged $10 for onsite activities, or $15 for offsite.
Absences need to be communicated via text to the Equippers Out of School Care phone by 3pm the day before.
Nil attempt of communication will incur a full days charge due to activities being preplanned, staffed and resourced.
Late collection
We understand at times parents may be late to collect their children. Our expectation is that late pick up will be communicated. Repeated lateness will require an adaption to the booking to account for this.
Pickups after 6pm closure will automatically incur a $10 charge to cover staffing requirements.
Accounts
Weekly invoices are processed and emailed out. Payment is due 14 days after invoice date. Payment plans can be negotiated with the manager if required.
Account statements are emailed out at the end of each month. These show all invoices and payments for that month and the account balance due for payment.
We do not approve accounts going into arrears unless a payment plan has been discussed.
Nonpayment of accounts, without communication, will be referred to a Collection Agency and recoverable costs for this service will be added to your account.
