Individual Release Forms for Photography and Filming Permission

There will be a photographer and a film crew at this event. We require a signed Individual Release form from each student’s parent or guardian. Teachers should have already received these forms via email. A different coloured lanyard will be issued to students where permission is not obtained, to allow our photo and film crew to easily identify those who cannot be photographed/filmed. Completed Individual Release forms are due by 19 November 2013. Forms can be scanned and emailed to thinkcs@microsoft.com or posted to:
