CAN PARENTS ATTEND EXCURSION DAYS WITH BIG CHILDCARE?

Due to our Child Protection Policy parents are unable to attend any of our excursions/incursions.

We follow the government regulation ratios of 1 staff member to 15 children, however on excursions we have additional staff attend to provide extra support and care.

WHAT IF MY CHILD IS LATE FOR THE BUS?

CAN I SEE RISK ASSESMENTS?

Risk assessments are completed for every excursion; please feel free to peruse these at your program before the excursion day.

Due to event times, the bus cannot wait for late arrivals, so it is important to know the departure times and make sure you arrive15 minutes early each day for excursions.

HOW MANY STAFF DO YOU HAVE LOOKING AFTER THE CHILDREN?

DO I NEED TO PACK ANY MEALS?

Breakfast is provided if your child is dropped off by 8am. All other snacks, lunch and drinksneed to be provided by parents.

WITH SO MANY CHILDREN ON AN EXCURSION HOW WILL YOU ENSURE MY CHILD IS SAFE?

We follow strict safety protocols which include; taking rolls, performing head checks, following risk management plans, keeping updated medical checklists etc. We also split our schools into zones making for smaller excursion groups. Your child will be wearing a securi-vest or rashie at any excursion. This separates a Big Childcare child from the general public. The vests have pocket inserts front & back that display your child’s school & a number. We also use wristbands & radio headsets. See images on the right.

Traditional Paper Enrolment Alternatively, you may request a hard copy enrolment form from your local centre, visit our website to download or email reception@bigchildcare.com.
