Delivering Outdoor Programs in Partnership

---

We have the skills and experience to design, prepare and deliver a range of Outdoor Learning and Outdoor Education programs for your group. 

This can include a mix of your staff and ours, depending on the ratios required to safely offer your program, and the skills and experience of your staff, To keep your costs down, you can arrange aspects of the program yourself (venue, catering, transport, other activities you want to include) or you can ask us to run the whole show. In this situation your staff retain supervision and duty-of-care responsibilities for your group.

We offer extended programs across multiple days, and sometimes day programs in paddling or hiking. 

1. Services of Dave Boldy as Program Coordinator and Lead Guide .
2. Provision of additional GOGI guides as required to safely conduct the activities and coordinate logistics for the program.
3. Preparation of Risk Management and compliance documentation that meets the standards outlines in the relevant Good Practice Guides of the Australian Adventure Activity Standards. Where applicable, plans and practices will be compliant with the relevant WA Department of Education Guidelines.
4. Bookings and liaison with campsites, caravan parks, land managers and other venue and activity providers. 
5. GOGI holds relevant licenses and insurance (*in progress), specifically a $20 Million Public Liability Insurance Policy, company registration and a Commerial Operators License for DPAW lands.
6. Provision of communications equipment for general and emergency use - specifically suitable handheld radios, and satellite enabled communications for locations without mobile service.

Optional

• Catering logistics for self catered meals. We don't provide a catering service, but can provide menu plans for group or small group catering, and can organise to provide the food supply for your group to self-cater. We specialise in catering for small group cooking using trangia stoves, gas stoves or campfire cooking.

All Groups

• Supervising staff will be responsible for Pastoral Care, Medications, collecting and reporting special dietary requirements, and all liaison with families prior, during and post program.
• GOGI staff do not take a supervisory role overnight, and will generally camp a little apart from the group in order to gain adequate rest. We are available in cases of emergency and only too happy to assist, but need our beauty sleep to safely offer activities to your group. Supervising 'lights out' and ensuring safety and suitable behaviour standards overnight will be your responsibility. We can assist in shaping some pre-program communication to set expectations in this regard.

Schools

• WA Public Schools are required to comply with the requirements of the 2025 Recreation and Outdoor Education Activities for Public School procedures. We can assist in how these procedures apply to the specifics of the program we are offering.
• Teachers cannot relinquish primary Duty of Care for students, and are required to provide adequate supervision.
