Medication Reminders
Where possible, student medication should be administered by parents out of school hours, but when your child does require doctor-prescribed medication during the school day, please ensure it is dropped off at the Health Centre in its original bottle or packaging.
Parents will be asked to complete a Medication Request Form, which is available from the Health Centre. The medication must be in its original container and clearly labelled with the following:
- Child’s name
- Name of medication
- Expiry date
- Dose and time to be administered
There’s no need to send over-the-counter medications (such as paracetamol or ibuprofen) to your child’s teacher; we keep a supply on hand at the Health Centre and can administer it as needed.
Thank you for your assistance in ensuring we provide a safe service for our students.
