Privacy Notice:
The Department of Education and Training (DET) is collecting the personal information requested as part of this excursion process in order to:
obtain lawful consent for your child to participate in the activity;
help coordinate the activity;
respond to any injury or medical condition that may arise during, or as a result of the activity; and
update school records where necessary.
The information will only be accessed by authorised school staff and will be dealt with in accordance with the confidentiality requirements of as applicable, s.426 of the Education (General Provisions) Act 2006 (Qld) and the Information Privacy Act 2009 (Qld) and/or the Privacy Act 1988 (Commonwealth).
The information will not be disclosed to any other person or agency unless the disclosure is authorised or required by law, or you have given the Department permission for the information to be disclosed.
As excursions and camps are conducted away from school grounds, there is an increased duty of care, responsibility, and accountability placed on staff as there are fewer support resources available. Students who are deemed to have demonstrated regular, inappropriate, unacceptable and/or unsafe behaviours while in the capacity of a Capalaba State College student, may pose an unacceptable risk to the school’s obligations under duty of care. Decisions about whether a student will attend an excursion or camp will be made by the Principal in consultation with the Deputy Principal and Year Level Coordinator after conducting a risk assessment in consultation with the parent of the student. The student and their family will be advised accordingly after a decision has been made. Students who are unable to attend an excursion or camp will have alternative arrangements made for a program of work to be undertaken at school for the duration of the activity.
Students will be expected to comply with the terms of the Student Code of Conduct (2020 - 2023) for the duration of this activity.
Activity Risks & Insurance:
Please note that the Department of Education and Training (DET) does not have personal accident insurance cover for students. If your child is injured as a result of an accident or incident while participating in the activity, all costs associated with the injury, including medical costs are the responsibility of the parents/carers. Some incidental medical costs may be covered by Medicare. If you have private health insurance, some costs may also be covered by your provider. Any other costs must be covered by parents/carers. It is up to all parents/carers to decide what types and what level of private insurance they wish to arrange to cover their child. Please take this into consideration in deciding whether or not to allow your child to participate in this activity.
