Camps, Excursion & Incursion Payments

We are continually trying to improve the way we organise and communicate events to the Brookside community. Part of this process is to ensure that Parents/Carers are given sufficient time to provide payment and consent for upcoming excursions and incursions.

The safety of our students is paramount and having these processes in place helps ensure that we have all of our bases covered when students leave the College under our care.

Visitors to the College

A reminder that all visitors to the College (including Parent Helpers) must report to Reception prior to signing in to the visitor register. In 2018, all Parent Helpers must compete a volunteer induction program and have a valid Working with Children card prior to being allowed to assist in the classroom. For further information on what this involves, please contact the General office or Mrs Seral Fehmi.

Updating contact details

Have you or your family circumstances changed? Mobile phone and email addresses can be updated on Compass. For all other changes, please notify the General Office either in person or via email at

Please note the booking system is now online and customers are no longer able to call customer service to make bookings.

Due to the popular demand of the program and to make sure there is equity amongst all participants, each participant can only book a maximum of 2 activities on the booking day. Additional activities requested will be added to a WAITING LIST. Participants who are on the waiting list will be notified if a spot becomes available after the booking date.

Please find attached flyer for uploading on your schools’ Facebook pages, Compass and distribution to students and parents.

If you have any questions regarding Teenage Holiday Program, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Many Thanks
