Covid -19 Protocols

Every care has been taken to minimise the possibility of the spread of infection of Covid-19.

Specific operating procedures have been introduced by external Health and Safety professionals in order to limit contact between participants and promote best hygiene practice on site. 

We have also implemented guidelines issued by 

Irish Sailing, the National Governing Body.

HSE/HPSC guidelines as per Infection Prevention and Control guidance for settings providing childcare during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

We draw the attention of all Applicants to the introduction to this document which states: “ It is important for parents to accept that no interpersonal activity is without risk of transmission of infection at any time. Generally speaking the closer the physical contact, the more likely infection is to spread from one person to another.  There are particular issues with small children because they tend to put things in their mouths and naturally seek very close contact with caregivers and other children.” 

A symtpom checker will be sent to parents of  all summer camp participants to complete and return to us on the 1st morning of their camp.
