Weekend Stock

Students unable to complete their weekend stock obligations for legitimate reasons (sanctioned by the College) are expected to arrange a swap as soon as possible and no later than Tuesday 9.00 pm prior to the rostered weekend

 

Weekend stock swaps must be made on the proper form and indicate the date of each of the duties swapped and the other student involved. 

  • Once the student requesting the swap is approved no further swaps will be permitted. 
  • Students involved in the swap must personally speak to the Head of Farm and Residential Manager to have their form signed off. 
  • Provided the swap is authorised, both students are expected to fulfil the new altered rostered weekends. 
  • Students who fail to complete their weekend stock will be rostered for additional weekend duties. 
  • Weekend stock rosters missed without a satisfactory explanation are recorded as an Unapproved absence and may have an impact on Good Standing. 
  • Students who do not complete their weekend stock obligation will not be signed off on the core competency “Work effectively in the industry” that makes up Certificate II Agriculture and so will not gain the qualification.
