The service must conduct, and record attendance checks following transitions between indoor and outdoor areas and extra-curricular activities. A staff member must be engaged as a Transition Attendant when transitions occur between indoor and outdoor areas and extra-curricular activities to ensure that children are safely and freely able to transition between activities. The Transition Attendant: ▪ must be equipped with a ‘walkie talkie’ to enable communication with staff inside the service; and ▪ must complete a sweep of the area that the children transitioned away from to ensure that no child is left behind.
