Our community is built on trust and respect. We cherish the freedom of the individual, as long as it is in the interest of the community. That's why we have clear rules that create a safe environment and make room for good socialising. It is important that you recognise and follow them.

All scheduled training is mandatory: We expect you to be on time for the activities you have chosen.

Cleaning during your stay: All participants must keep their room and bathroom tidy and clean during their stay. These scheduled chores are an integral part of the efterskole experience and shared responsibility.

Visits to other rooms: Participants may visit each other's rooms between 10:00 and 22:00. Outside of this time, socialising and staying in the common areas is allowed.

In the room (sleeping time): The participant must be in their room and ready to go to sleep by 22:00. It is allowed to be in bed with electronic devices such as a computer or mobile phone as long as it does not disturb the roommates. A teacher can remove the equipment if problems arise. The equipment is stored in the office at the student's own risk and insurance until otherwise decided. We expect everyone to respect the need for rest after a busy day.

Bullying is not tolerated: We expect good social behaviour and a proper tone. We do not tolerate bullying, harassment or discrimination. We also do not accept threats, violence, vandalism or theft. Violation of these rules will result in immediate dismissal. In addition, vandalism to school buildings or equipment will result in the obligation to pay compensation. 

Smoking, alcohol and drugs are prohibited: The school is a smoke-free area - both indoors and outdoors. Alcohol is not allowed at school, in town or on the way to and from school. We do not tolerate drugs of any kind. Violation of this rule will result in immediate termination of the participant's stay - without refund. In addition, sex is not allowed. Violation of this rule will lead to a conversation with the home and may result in expulsion.

Disclaimer of liabilityProgrammes, courses and activities are subject to change depending on, for example, weather conditions. The school reserves the right to cancel courses, activities or entire programmes if there are too few registered participants. In such cases, all registered participants will be contacted directly with an offer of an alternative or refund.

Insurance/damage: In case of injury or emergency, staff will provide first aid and transport to the nearest doctor or hospital if necessary. However, the costs are covered by the participant's own insurance. If you are a Danish citizen, this will be covered by your yellow health insurance card. For EU citizens, it is covered by the blue EU health insurance card. For international participants, we recommend that you seek advice from your private insurance company about coverage.

Cancellation policy: Cancellation of stays can be made up to one month prior to start, with a fee of 1,000 DKK. If you cancel within one month before the start, no refund will be given. Expenses related to travel cancellations or delays are not the responsibility of the school.

Social security number: If you are a Danish resident, we will, in accordance with the Efterskole Act, ask you to provide your CPR number when enrolling. This will only be used in the administrative context of the school and will not be publicly available.

All programmes include:

• Accommodation
• Three main meals and access to fresh fruit
• Bed linen, duvet and pillow hire

Special considerations/needs

Do I need to bring linen/towels? No, they don't. The school provides bedding and linen. But you need to bring your own towels - see the packing list for your camp.

How much pocket money should the student bring? It's very individual. There is a shop in town where you can buy snacks. The participants spend about 150-300 kr. per week they are here. There is an ATM in town 200 metres from the school.

Is it possible to do my laundry while I am on camp? Yes, it is possible to wash clothes while you are here every day between 16-22.

Medicine If the participant uses medication on a daily basis, this must be declared and handed in at check-in. This also applies to pamol/panodil (we as a school are not allowed to buy and then hand out panodil to students. They must be brought from home) A teacher will give it to you as needed. No medication at
