Medication
Because of the obvious dangers of children bringing medication to school, the following should be noted:

If medication is to be given at school, a medical information sheet must be filled in by a parent or guardian. These are available at the office
If medication must be given during school hours it must be sent to the office first thing in the morning. No medication may be left in a child’s schoolbag. The medication must be clearly labeled with the child’s name and dosage instructions
The office staff will administer medication, but parents must be aware that it is the child’s responsibility to come for that medication
A medical register is maintained for all children on medication


Head Lice

Head Lice is a very common problem in all schools. Parents are advised to check their children’s hair at regular intervals. If you discover lice, please notify the school immediately so that action may be taken to advise other parents that the problem exists. If a note is sent home regarding head lice, please act on it. Head lice does not discriminate, it loves clean hair.
