In the case of an emergency Ontario Health Card information will be required. Our primary facilities for emergencies are Fowler Kennedy Sport Medicine Clinic and University Hospital both located on campus.

What to Expect When You Arrive

Friendly Wild Western Days Staff in purple shirts!

  • When you arrive to Western University in the Huron Flatts parking lot, you will be greeted by our enthusiastic Wild Western Days staff! One of our staff will greet your group on your bus, and determine what school you are from. From here you will be directed towards a grassy area to gather with your students. Our Wild Western Days staff will then review our safety policies and give an overview of what your day will look like!

Teacher Expectations

Attendance

  • Our Wild Western Day staff will take head counts from the time your students step off of  the bus, until the time that they get back on the bus. However, you know your students best, and we ask that you assist us in ensuring the wherabouts of your students at all times throughout the day.

    Teachers are expected to stay with their group ALL day.
