Fifteen-year-old Jeremiah Perry, a student at C.W. Jeffreys Collegiate Institute who drowned on a school-run camping trip this summer.A young man who was on a fatal school canoe trip nearly four years ago says he didn’t notify the supervising teacher that a student who later drowned appeared to be a bad swimmer.
He says Perry was wearing a life jacket at the time, as safety rules required for canoeing, and eventually managed to flutter-kick the canoe to shore while Coufadis paddled.Under cross-examination today, Coufadis – who was 19 at the time of the trip – was asked whether he reported his initial observation regarding Perry’s swimming to Nicholas Mills, the teacher leading the trip.
Seems mainly a policy and procedural issue, though there were many missed opportunities staff could have taken. There should be several checks and balances in place, and there appear to have been little. Safety shouldn't be dependent on the initiative of alert staff.
The teacher, the principal and the school should be found Not Guilty. This was simply a tragic accident. The parents and the student himself on the other hand must bear some responsibility.
