Risk Assessment

To assist educators in preparing their own risk assessment for a visit to any of the Historic Houses Trust museums, a Venue and Safety Information Sheet relevant to each property is available to download below (in pdf file format). Each information sheet aims to answer all questions required by the Department of Education and Training.

"The OHS Act and Regulation require principals and teachers organising excursions to use risk management to ensure the health and safety of students, staff and excursion volunteers. Risk management supports better decision making by contributing to a greater insight into the potential risks and their impacts."
- NSW Department of Education and Training Excursions Policy [6.6.1 (1)]
