This risk assessment document evaluates potential hazards for a student named Ellie Daniels taking photos in front of a dance studio. It identifies four potential hazards: walking into a tree, falling down steps, tripping over a curb, and bumping into a bench. The degree of risk for each hazard is assessed as minor or non-reportable. Existing control measures include being aware of surroundings and watching where one is walking. No further action is required.
