Get coding and do pixel art.

Always complete a register at the start of the meeting to record who is present.
Complete frequent headcounts, especially during transitions and activities, to ensure no one is missing and everyone remains safe.
If you are meeting or going out from your usual meeting place, remember there must be a designated leader in charge, who is not counted in the adult to young person ratio.
Always remember to risk assess and plan for free time, even if it's just the first five minutes of the meeting.
Activities start when the first person arrives and end when the last person leaves, including leaders and their children.
Remember to review your risk assessment to ensure you have enough adults, which may be more than the minimum ratio.
Check the space is for hazards, keep the exits clear, and know the location of the nearest first aid kits.
Plan and be mindful of changing weather conditions, communicate and set boundaries clearly, and have a backup plan just in case.
Stay in groups, have a buddy system in place, be aware of your surroundings, and have designated meeting points.
