MEDICAL INSURANCE: Parents please note there is no personal injury insurance cover provided by the NSW Department of Education and Training for students in
relation to school sporting activities, physical education lessons or any other activity. Parents and caregivers are advised to access the level and extent of their childs
involvement in the sport program offered by the school, school sport zone, area and state school sport associations when deciding whether additional insurance
cover, above that provided by Medicare, is required. Personal accident insurance cover is available through normal retail insurance outlets. The NSW
Supplementary Sporting Injuries Benefits Scheme, funded by the NSW Government, covers any injury resulting in the permanent loss of a prescribed faculty or the
use of some prescribed part of the body. I acknowledge that participating in any physical activity has an inherent risk of injury. I further authorise and appoint
Mackellar Girls Staff to take all the steps on my behalf as it may think fit to obtain medical or associated treatment on my behalf in relation to any illness or injury
suffered.
