I hereby give consent for my child/children to attend the Aquatic Centre Holiday Activities Program. I understand that it is my responsibility to fully and adequately enquire of and to disclose to Aquatic Centre staff and/or any other authorised person, any circumstances which could affect my child's safety or any activities I do not wish my child to participate in. I understand that activities may take place within the Aquatic Centre and at other sites within the Sydney Olympic Park precinct. I also understand that some activities involve a risk of personal injury and/or property damage. I understand that Aquatic Centre will not be responsible for any accident/loss or injury suffered by my child/children during the course of activity. I hereby authorise the staff at the Aquatic Centre to organise medical or hospital treatment as they see necessary, at my expense.

Parent/guardians must accompany children into the Centre and sign their children in and out of the Holiday Recreational Program at the activity room between the drop off times of 8 am – 9 am and pick-up times of 4 pm - 5 pm. Participants will not be released or accepted into or from instructors care until the nominated parent/guardian has signed them in and/or out. A child will not be released from our duty of care if the guardian/carer picking up the child is not registered on our enrolment form. Due to staffing requirements, children that remain after the collection time of 5 pm will be charged a late fee of $10 per quarter.
