Child Protection Seminar

NSW Sport and Recreation is committed to ensuring that the safety,
welfare and wellbeing of children is maintained at all times. Our aim is
to promote a safe environment for all children to participate in sporting
and/or recreational activities.
Kempsey and Taree 2007
Our child protection information seminars will help sport and recreation organisations
understand risk management and the importance of establishing sound policies and
procedures for people working with children.
As an administrator, coach, volunteer involved in sport and recreation, or contractor
working in child-designated areas, our seminars will also assist you to understand your
responsibilities under the Child Protection (Prohibited Employment Act 1998) and the
Commission for Children and Young People Act 1998.
Child protection courses are approved for 3.0 registration points for Austswim re-registration.
The seminar will cover:
■ Why is the legislation needed?
■ Does it affect me? Does it affect my sport?
■ What do I have to do as an individual or representative of a sport and recreation organisation?
■ How can the department help with this?
■ Where do we go to from here?
Child protection seminars are free of charge. All you need to do is contact us to reserve
your place.
