Monday 1st September – College Athletics Monday 8th September – back up day in case of inclement weather In the event of inclement weather on Monday 1st September, parents will receive a communication that the event has been cancelled and that normal classes will be in operation. If this occurs, we have a backup day scheduled for Monday 8th September Students need to arrive at Proclamation Park by 9:00am. Students will be dismissed from Proclamation Park at the completion of the program and following a quick clean up. This will be sometime between 2:40pm and 3:00pm. Students will be the given the opportunity to sign up for a range of events during House Assemblies in the lead up to the Athletics Carnival. These are used to assist in the organisation of the day, but students are encouraged to compete in additional events if they choose to on the day. As well as competitive track and field events there will also be a number of novelty events. All students are expected to attend as this event is part of the Heathmont College calendar. Failure to do so will be regarded as an unexplained absence. Any student needing to leave the event early must have parent/guardian consent via Compass or alternatively be signed out at the venue by a parent/guardian. A canteen will be open on the day serving a limited range of hot food, snacks and drinks. Students are encouraged to bring their own food and drink. |

3. Funding: This program is fully funded by the Department of Education.
4. Procedures After the session, you can choose to take a short, anonymous survey, either online or on paper.

Your answers will be stored securely on either SurveyMonkey or our SharePoint folder and de-identified data shared with the Department of Education.

5. Risks and Benefits The Department of Education uses the survey results to make sure the program is working well and to help improve other programs in the future. There isn’t a lot of research yet about how best to teach these topics in schools, so our program will help create more knowledge on what works best for students. The session should not cause any physical or emotional discomfort. It’s meant to reduce any embarrassment and help everyone understand these topics better. If at any point you feel uncomfortable, there will be teachers and staff available to help, and the educators from Sexual Health Victoria will also be there after the session if you have any questions. The survey doesn’t ask personal or sensitive questions; it just checks if you feel more confident and knowledgeable after the session. If you feel uncomfortable, you can choose not to complete the survey or stop at any time.
