When you are visiting us during school hours, we have a number of safety procedures which all visitors are required to adhere to.
Safety Procedures when you are visiting our school:
Signing In Process for Visitors:
- All visitors, contractors or volunteers entering the school premises, are required to report to the front office and liaise with Office Personnel
- If you have not undertaken a Site Induction, office staff will provide you with a Site Induction Brochure (located at the front counter) and provide you with relevant information, eg. Evacuation Points.
- Once you have completed the Site Induction, you can sign the ‘Visitors/Contractor's Register' at the front counter and proceed on-site.
- The site induction is valid for the remainder of the year. For future visits, you may proceed by directly signing the ‘Visitors/Contractors Register' at the front counter.
- When signing in, please ensure that you have marked ‘Y' in the column titled "Safety Briefing Issued Y/N".
In the case of assemblies, or events attended by a large volume of visitors:
- Sign in at the front office is not necessary
