WARA is actioning the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations.

The WA Rogaining Association (WARA) has created a subcommittee tasked with implementation of the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations. WARA is committed to safety of all its members and our approach to keeping children and young people safe is an extension of that.

So far, the subcommittee has completed a self-assessment of WARA's existing child safe practices, attended workshops, and met with relevant people within the Department of Communities' Child Protection Unit, the Department of Local Government Sport and Culture and SportWest to understand, navigate and start to action the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations.

The annual WARA Setting and Vetting Day will be held on Saturday October 19th 2024, 9am to 4pm. This is a free event.

The day will be held 30mins east of Perth CBD, and is a fun day covering many aspects of vetting, setting, planning and mapping a WARA event. A short hike to practice vetting controls will feature, as the hall is located in some beautiful forest, as will practice in the use of Oomapper.

Attendance at the day is encouraged for all rogainers, even if you are simply curious to understand the process of organising a rogaining event.  Experienced setters are on hand to answer questions and facilitate, and we can even tell you a little on how the Australian Rogaining Championships came together.  Bring along a laptop during the day - as this will allow plenty of practice in preparing your own rogaine map.  The volunteer sheet will be available to sign up onto for keen setting and vetting participants, but is not a compulsory part of the event!
