RAMS Documents Large Group / Schools Package

Risk Analysis and Management Systems Reports (RAMS)

Large groups & school packages are available with downloadable RAMS documents for your convenience

A full set of  RAMS documents have been compiled to meet statutory requirements and assist large groups/schools in planning their visit to THSS.

These reports have been developed with the assistance of Registered Teachers with a professional and knowledgeable understanding of RAMS as a planning, implementation and evaluation tool for SAFE management of outdoor activities. They give clear identification of potential risks and the assessment of needs, skills and competencies for those who will be involved, with the added assurance that contingency planning for emergencies has been undertaken. The key areas of PEOPLE, EQUIPMENT and ENVIRONMENT have been taken into consideration to ensure that nothing important has been missed.

IMPORTANT: You need to add your own:

  • Student / Staff Ratios
  • School Policies and Guidelines recommended
  • Skills required by Staff ( It is expected that at least one of your staff members hold a current First Aid Certificate and staff have firm control of their groups. SUPERVISORS mentioned in the RAMS Reports refers to your own group supervisors, NOT Pool Staff)
  • Extra requirements as you see fit.
  • The Final decision is made by your own School / Group Principal, BOT, Chairperson or other.

The RAMS Reports are available to groups on request.
