• Accuracy of Numbers: Please ensure your participant numbers are correct at the 7-day deadline. Refunds cannot be given - and additional children cannot be added - after this point.
• Weather Policy: We operate rain or shine so please dress appropriately for the Irish climate. If Met Éireann issues an orange weather warning, we will contact you directly to discuss alternative arrangements.

CHECK-IN POLICY

• Arrive 15 minutes early to allow time for parking and to get everyone organised and ready.
• Allow extra travel time, as the Bray area and Southern Cross Road can be very busy, especially on weekends.
• Check-in begins promptly at your scheduled start time, so please be on time to make the most of your experience.
• Your instructor will start with a Health & Safety briefing and guide you to an area to leave your bags.
• Groups will then be divided into teams for each zone (approximately 16 participants per zone). If you’d like to pre-arrange your teams, you are welcome to do so.
• Late arrivals may have reduced activity time due to scheduling constraints.
• Hand sanitiser is available throughout the venue - please use it as needed.
• If any participant has a medical condition (e.g., asthma, hay fever, diabetes), please inform your instructor.

FINAL NUMBERS
To secure your group's date and time, simply purchase a minimum of 10 tickets. Please confirm your final numbers and settle any remaining balance at least 7 working days before the activity so we can arrange the right number of instructors.

WAIVER FORMS
Each child attending will need a signed digital waiver. Follow the instructions in your confirmation email to share the weblink with other parents. For health and safety, only children with completed waiver forms can participate.
