Summer Adventure Club is designed to provide children with exciting experiences while maintaining the same high standards of health, safety, and supervision that families expect every day at Primrose.

During Summer Adventure Club, we are committed to:

• Preparing all snacks and sack lunches in our school kitchen using safe food handling practices.
• Storing lunches in insulated coolers with ice packs to maintain safe temperatures until mealtime.
• Providing frequent water breaks and encouraging hydration throughout outdoor activities and field trips.
• Monitoring weather conditions and adjusting activities when temperatures or weather conditions may impact children’s safety.
• Following sunscreen procedures in accordance with family authorization and school policies.
• Maintaining teacher-to-child ratios that meet or exceed Illinois DCFS licensing requirements during all Summer Adventure Club activities and field trips.
• Requiring all staff participating in field trips to complete annual field trip safety training and emergency preparedness training.
• Carrying emergency contact information, medications, and first aid supplies for children with documented medical needs while away from the school.
• Following individualized allergy, medication, and emergency action plans for children with documented health conditions.
• Ensuring all adults accompanying children follow Primrose transportation safety policies and procedures.
• Conducting attendance checks before departure, upon arrival, throughout each field trip, and before returning to school to ensure every child is safely accounted for.
• Requiring all drivers and vehicles used for transportation to meet applicable licensing, insurance, and safety requirements.
• Providing child safety seats or booster seats whenever required by Illinois law, with staff trained on proper installation and usage before transporting children.
