Your child’s information
It is the responsibility of the person making the booking to ensure that all details provided in the booking form are accurate, in particular full information about each child, including medical and other special educational needs, and emergency contact information. If we do not have all this information before club starts, your children will not be allowed on the club.
Children’s needs
Maverick Holiday Camp recognises that the needs of individual children vary, and will endeavour to accommodate children with specific needs and/or medical conditions within the club environment. It is our policy not to exclude any child due to specific needs and/or medical conditions wherever possible.
It is the responsibility of the parent/carer to inform us of any medical conditions and special educational needs or disabilities, whether booking online or over the phone, so we can discuss how best to accommodate the child, and consider whether any reasonable adjustments can be made to ensure they are able to fully participate and enjoy the activities on the club within the staffing ratios provided for their age group. The needs of each child vary so decisions are made on a case-by-case basis and depend upon the level of support each individual child may require. We are not able to provide additional staff to support a child above our standard ratios of 1:10 for under 8 year old’s, 1:15 for 8 years old and over,
irrespective of any specific needs or medical conditions. Where we feel that a child is not coping within these ratios, we reserve the right to ask the parent/carer to come and collect their child. No refund will be available.
Maverick Holiday Camp does not provide one-to-one support.
We are happy to accommodate a child with specific needs on a paid trial basis and reserve the right to review further bookings.
All children attending holiday clubs, irrespective of age are expected to be capable enough to use the toilet independently. Maverick Holiday Camp staff are not expected to wipe, change nappies or assist the children. We are aware that accidents can occasionally happen, and we will help the children when required to do so. If this a regular occurrence, parents will be contacted about a plan of action going forward.
Illness, First Aid and Emergency medical treatment
Maverick Holiday Camp requires that all children who are ill or infectious be kept home for the full duration of their ailment, and for 48 hours after the last symptom occurs. Maverick Holiday Camp will only administer medication if it has been prescribed by a doctor or other health professional. A parent/carer is required to complete a Permission to Administer Medicine form prior.
In the event of an accident, first aid will be administered to children in our care, and the emergency services will be called if necessary.
Essential prescribed medication including Epipens must be handed in to the Club Manager for safe-keeping.
Child Exclusion
Maverick Holiday Camp has a responsibility for ensuring the well-being and safety of all children in our care and have a behaviour management policy. The company follows a zero tolerance policy on discrimination, bullying and persistent poor behaviour of any kind, irrespective of any special needs. On rare occasions, and in more serious cases, we reserve the right to ask parents to remove children from club either for the remainder of the day (part exclusion), or for the rest of the season (full exclusion). No refund will be made for any remaining days booked, and any costs associated with the exclusion will be the parents’ responsibility. We reserve the right to exclude a child at any time prior to or during a session due to illness. The parent/carer will be expected to come and collect their child.
Late Pick-up
All children MUST be collected by 4.30pm. If for any reason you are unable to collect by 4.30pm, we ask that you call the Club Manager. Two members of staff will wait with your child until they are collected. You may be charged a late pick-up fee of £20 for every 15 minutes after 4.30pm to cover the additional staffing cost. If we have no contact from a parent/guardian by 5.00pm, we will contact Social Services to advise them we have an uncollected child. We reserve the right to refuse future bookings from parents who continually pick up late. Timings are subject to change. Parents will be made aware of timings upon making their booking and will receive email confirmation.
Notice of Absence
If a child is not attending a scheduled day on club, parents/carers must telephone or email to allow us to update records.
Programme and activities
From time to time, we may need to change venues, dates, activities and courses for reasons within or outside our control.
Activity programmes are subject to change in the event of unsuitable weather or other circumstances beyond our control. Timetables displayed on club are a guide and are subject to change. Specific extra activities such as swimming (where available) are scheduled in as much as possible, however, if you are booking individual days, we cannot guarantee these activities will fall on those particular days.
In exceptional circumstances we may have to cancel particular dates at a venue, and in this event, we will try to give those booked onto the programme at least 14 days’ notice and will offer a suitable alternative if one is available, or refund all monies paid for the dates cancelled, if preferred.
Personal Property
All your child’s personal property is your responsibility and Maverick Holiday Camp is not liable for any lost or damaged property on club. If you believe that your child has left an item at the club, please telephone or email us and we will do their best to assist you. Lost property will remain on club until the last day of the season and should be collected before the last day. If this isn’t possible we will keep items for a week after the clubs at School, after which items will be donated to charity.
