Emergency Management – Casual Bus Travellers

Families are advised that any student needing to travel on a bus they are not regularly assigned to must complete a Casual Bus Traveller form for Emergency Management purposes. Forms are available the office and may take up to 24–48 hours to process. Once approved, students will be issued a bus pass, which must be handed to their bus driver when boarding. This helps ensure the driver knows where each student is travelling to and supports the safety and wellbeing of all students in the event of an emergency.

EMERGENCY CONTACT DETAILS

We also require your nominated emergency contact details to be current & up to date. Please note your Emergency Contact person must live within 30 minutes of the school.

LATE ARRIVAL/EARLY COLLECTION

If student/ss arrive at school after 8.50am or leave school before 3.20pm they must be signed in or out at the school office by a parent/carer

The school is to be notified of any student absences. If you know your student will be absent please add this through 'PAM' or contact the school office.

Schools are now legislated to contact families regarding ’unexplained absences’, and parents will receive a text message for any ‘unexplained absence’ including late arrivals that are not signed in at the office.

MEDICATIONS AT SCHOOL

PLEASE DO NOT SEND MEDICATION TO SCHOOL WITH CHILD/SIBLING

If your child requires medication at school, please come to the school office and sign the medication register. You can then provide office staff with their medication - in its original prescription package. The prescription label must have their name, dosage and time to administer medication.

All medication is dispensed through the office and signed off on the medication register. If appropriate permission is not signed for, it cannot be administered to the child.

It is also a good idea to mention to the child's teacher that there is medication at the office and what time it is to be administered thank you.
