Our Code of Conduct

The staff are looking forward to providing all our campers with a fun, memorable, and safe summer camp experience. Each camper has a responsibility to act in a way that assures a positive experience for all. All campers are required to follow these guidelines.

Our code of conduct will be reviewed with all campers in a discussion led by an Assistant Director. We ask that campers familiarize themselves with our guidelines prior to arriving at camp to ensure a smoother transition at the beginning of our camps.

Behaviour Guidelines

  • Campers shall be responsible for their words and actions.
  • Campers shall be respectful of others.
  • Campers shall follow directions from staff members at all times.
  • Campers shall leave all electronic devices at home such as iPods, handheld computer games, MP3 players. Cell phones will be collected by staff during the arrival procedure and will be made available to campers at designated times in the evenings to allow campers to call home as required.
  • Campers shall not venture off with other campers in the evenings or during the daytime without notifying a staff member.
  • Campers are forbidden from entering a camp house that they haven’t been assigned to.
  • Possession or use of drugs, alcohol, and/or tobacco while attending camp is prohibited, and will result in immediate dismissal.

Prohibited Behaviours

  • Foul or disrespectful language towards staff or fellow campers.
  • Failure to adhere to staff’s direction/behaviour guidelines and rules.
  • Misuse of cellphones, iPad etc. (This includes using these devices outside of the allotted device handling time sectioned off during the day).
  • Reckless or unsafe behaviour that could result in physical/emotional harm to themselves or others.
  • Misuse of NAC property that could result in broken equipment/facilities.

Steps taken for failure to follow these behaviour guidelines

Staff follow a 3 strike system for redirecting camper behaviour.

    • Staff will redirect the camper to more appropriate behaviour.
    • Strike 1: The camper will be reminded of the behaviour guidelines.
      If the behaviour persists, the camper will discuss the situation with a team lead.

        The staff will document the situation. The written documents will include what the behaviour problem is, what provoked the problem, and the corrective action is taken.
    • Strike 2: If the problem persists, the camper will speak to Michael, our Assistant Director about the necessary changes to their behaviour.
        Discussions with our Assistant Director may result in the camper losing privileges or being removed from certain activities in order to maintain a healthy camp environment for their fellow campers.
    • Strike 3: If the problem persists, the camper will meet with our Camp Director, Alanna, who may find it necessary to have the camper picked up early from camp.

If a camper’s behaviour at any time threatens the immediate safety of themselves or others, the parent/guardian will be notified and expected to pick up the child immediately.

Failure to comply with the Code of Conduct may result in the removal from the program and/or additional fees. There will be no refunds given for campers who are removed from the program due to violations of the Code of Conduct
