Documents & Policies
Working with Children Requirements
Our club is strongly committed to keeping children safe. All members working in child-related roles are required to provide a valid Working With Children Check (WWCC), which is verified with the Office of the Children’s Guardian. This includes all Age Managers, their assistants, and Water Safety personnel, who must hold a current WWCC to participate in these roles.
Report Child Safe Matters
The safety of children and young people depends on our whole community being vigilant and speaking up. All members of Yamba SLSC have a responsibility to report anything they observe or become aware of that may be inappropriate.
To make a report, please contact our club’s Member Protection Information Officer (MPIO) at secretary@yambaslsc.org.au or use the online reporting portal by clicking below.
Child Safe Awareness Online Course
The safety and wellbeing of every child and young person at our club is our top priority. All members follow Child Protection Laws and the SLSA Child Safe Policy, guided by our Child Safe Code of Conduct. Resources and online training, including the Child Safe Awareness course (required for all patrolling members 13+), help ensure everyone knows how to engage safely and respectfully, keeping our club a safe, positive place for all.
