Informed Consent – Salmon Release


Wednesday 28 April 2010

To: Division 4 Parents/Guardians


Trip Date: Friday 7 May 2010
Destination: Hastings Creek Return Time: 11:00 a.m.
Departure Time: 9:00 a.m. Cost: $0 per student
Transportation: Parent drivers

PURPOSE:
To release our young salmon fry back into the wild. NOTE: This school field trip is
optional. Alternate arrangements will be made for students who do not participate.

DESCRIPTION OF ACTIVITIES:
We will meet at school as usual in the morning. We will place the salmon fry into a bucket, and
drive the 10 minutes to our selected release site on the Hastings Creek near Fromme
Elementary School. Students will each need a small empty container to take a few fry and
release them in a nearby spot in the creek. We then examine the local conditions of water,
forest and creekside while we walk.

TRANSPORTATION:
Students will be transported by private vehicle.

SUPERVISION:
P. Clarke, and at least one other parent is required, however I like to have several parents on
site.

NATURE AND SCOPE OF RISKS:


Motor vehicle accidents are always a risk on field trips. Students will be walking through an
urban forest. They will not be walking in the creek or going in the water at all. Twisted ankles
are a possibility, and for that reason we walk, not run.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
A first aid kit and a cell phone will be taken by the teacher supervisor. Student Emergency
Procedure Plans/medical supplies will be brought for students with life-threatening medical
conditions (e.g., anaphylaxis).

Sincerely,

Paul Clarke
