The wellbeing and safety of all children in our school is something that we take very seriously.

We are often asked if we are a nut free school. The answer can be quite complex. We encourage a ‘nut free’ environment to cater for and assist children with allergies. We can not make this mandatory but will suggest parents refrain from providing students with spreads such as, peanut butter, nutella etc.

We do however, have several Nut Free classrooms throughout the school. This is in place because there are students in that class with severe allergies.

The following classes are a Nut Free/ Food Allergy Aware Zones

FH

1/2H

3/4B

3/4V

5/6C

Thank you for your consideration and support with this matter.

Please check your childs uniform.

We have had a lot of calls and requests from parents in regards to missing and lost uniform pieces. Please check you childs uniform, make sure it's labelled and return any that do not belong to your family.

Sick Bay

Medication

Medication of any kind, sent to school with a student, must be handed in at the office along with a written permission note providing details of its use.

Children are not permitted to administer their own medication. Medication must be administered with adult supervision and written parental permission.

Asthma Management Plan

Parents of students who are known to be asthmatic; be it occasional or regular, are asked to provide the school with an Asthma Management Plan and their own named personal medication.

Students should have their medication with them in the classroom.

Do we have the most up to date Action Plan for your child?

If your child has an action plan and there have been recent updates or changes, you need to bring an updated copy to the front office.

If your child has a new diagnosis with an Action Plan for Asthma, Anaphylaxis or any allergies you need to supply a copy to the office as soon as possible.

This is the only medication that students can self-administer.
