Hay Fever and Asthma Season

Spring brings an increase in airborne pollen, with a higher incidence of hay fever and asthma. This includes thunderstorm asthma, which is potentially life threatening.

If students suffer from hay fever and require antihistamine medication, please ensure antihistamine medication is taken prior to arriving at the College.

Asthma suffers must always carry their Ventolin puffer in their school bags, as it may be required in transit to and from school.

More information is available on the Victorian Department of Health website.
