Infectious Illness
If your child contracts an infectious illness, please exclude them from coming to school. Sick children are much better off at home.
Childhood Immunisations
Children should be fully immunised before starting school. On enrolling your child, you must present your child’s immunisation records. If your child is not immunised they will be asked to stay home if another child has contracted a disease. Length will vary on the infectious disease.
Accident and illness
Where possible, parents will be notified immediately if children become ill or are seriously injured at school. It is essential that information on the school medical system is accurate and up to date to enable emergency contact.
Before your child is released from class the necessary forms must be filled in at the office. Should an ambulance be required, parents will be required to cover the cost.
Medical emergencies
Please ensure all medical conditions are made known to the school office and the Learning Area teacher. If a child has a medical condition or allergy, which may require emergency treatment, an Emergency Action Plan is to be completed. Please contact the Deputy Principal for this to be arranged.
For serious medical conditions parents must provide the school with written details of the condition including treatment. A form for this is available from the office.
Depending on the severity of the ailment an interview with administration may be required prior to enrolment. This information must be constantly updated to ensure the school has the most current information and contacts.
PLEASE SUPPLY US WITH CURRENT EMERGENCY PHONE NUMBERS IN CASE OF ILLNESS OR ACCIDENT.
