WAIVER, RELEASE, AND INDEMNITY AGREEMENT

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

The Competition & Consumer Act 2010 ("the Act") implies a warranty of due care and skill into contracts for the supply of services to consumers. To the extent that this warranty applies to any contract relevant to this Release and Waiver of Liability, it cannot be excluded. Subject to that warranty, if applicable, and in consideration of being permitted to participate in an acting training course provided by Rachel Elizabeth Williams trading as "Play. Every. Day." (ABN 41 142 457 236) ("P.E.D."), each of the undersigned agrees to the following:

1. Acknowledgment of Risk

I acknowledge and understand that participation in drama classes involves physical movement, improvisation, and interaction with others, which may include activities conducted barefoot. I understand that these activities carry inherent risks, including but not limited to:

  • Slips, trips, and falls

  • Collisions with other participants

  • Accidental injury from movement exercises

  • Emotional or psychological impact from acting exercises

  • Discomfort due to physical activity

I agree to assess my own physical and emotional comfort and immediately inform P.E.D. staff if I feel unsafe or unwell during the course.

2. Release of Liability

I hereby release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to sue P.E.D. (including its directors, officers, agents, and employees), other course participants, volunteers, or owners/lessees of premises used for the course ("Releasees") from any and all liability, claims, demands, or causes of action arising from injury, illness, or property damage resulting from participation in the course, whether caused by negligence of the Releasees or otherwise, except for rights granted under the Act.

3. Indemnity

I agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Releasees from any loss, liability, damage, or cost incurred due to my participation in the course, whether caused by negligence of the Releasees or otherwise.

4. Assumption of Risk

I assume full responsibility for any risk of bodily injury, illness, death, or property damage arising from or related to my participation in the course.

5. Medical Disclosure and Consent

I confirm that I am medically and physically fit to participate in the course. I agree to disclose any medical conditions, allergies, injuries, or relevant health concerns to P.E.D. before participation. In the event of a medical emergency, I consent to necessary first aid or medical treatment and accept responsibility for any associated costs.

6. Footwear and Attire

I acknowledge that some activities may be conducted without shoes and accept responsibility for my choice of footwear and attire. I understand that participating barefoot carries inherent risks and agree to exercise caution.

7. Consent for Physical Contact

I understand that acting exercises may involve physical interaction with instructors or other participants. P.E.D. will ensure such interactions are appropriate and conducted with consent. I agree to inform instructors if I feel uncomfortable at any time.

8. Photography and Media Release

I consent to P.E.D. capturing and using photos/videos of me for promotional and educational purposes. If I do not consent, I will inform P.E.D. in writing before the course begins.

9. Illness and Hygiene Policy

I agree not to attend classes if I am experiencing symptoms of illness, including fever, cough, or other contagious conditions. P.E.D. reserves the right to refuse participation to any individual who appears unwell.

10. Agreement Scope and Enforceability

This Release and Waiver of Liability, Assumption of Risk, and Indemnity Agreement extends to all acts of negligence by the Releasees and is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by law. If any portion is held invalid, the remainder shall continue in full legal force and effect.
