IMPORTANT! - Regarding Rajono Camp - Melbourne 2027
Labas everyone,
As we get ready for our next camp, I just want to clarify the requirements around Working with Children Checks (WWCC) for all adults attending camp.
When we introduced the new registration form for the previous camp, we advised that all adults attending needed to provide their WWCC details. At the time, we allowed some flexibility as we were introducing the new registration process, but we also made it clear that this would not be accepted for future camps and that everyone attending would need to have their WWCC details provided and checked.
This is now the requirement for our upcoming camp.
Under Victorian legislation, overnight camps for children are considered child-related work. As an organisation, we therefore require all adults staying on site at camp to provide their WWCC details so that their status can be checked.
If you are attending camp and staying on site, you must provide your WWCC details when registering. These details will be checked by the organisers. Adults who do not have a current WWCC, or whose WWCC cannot be verified, will not be permitted to stay on the camp site.
If you unexpectedly attend camp without having provided your WWCC details beforehand, you will need to provide them on arrival and have your WWCC status verified before you can stay on the campsite.
This applies to all adults staying at camp, including leaders, volunteers and parent helpers.
If you already have a current WWCC but didn't provide the details last time, please make sure you include them on your registration this time. If you're unsure about your WWCC status or have any questions, please get in touch with us before registering.
We appreciate everyone's cooperation with this. It's important that we have these requirements sorted as early as possible so that there are no issues when we arrive at camp.
Thanks,
Budek,
Brolis Stefan Zgudka
