Dear Parents/Guardians,
Spring is here and hay fever season has arrived with a vengeance. I am getting lots of students coming to the health centre with hay fever symptoms ( itchy, Sore, swollen, red eyes)
I cannot assist them if medication is not available for them at school. Cold compress is not enough to relieve itchiness and discomfort.
If your child suffers from hay fever please provide the school with antihistamines either tablets or eye drops.
The course of action taking if your child does not have medication at school and does not want to go back to class. Will be a call from school for someone to collect them. To avoid disruption to your working day please download the medication authority in compass or collect a medication authority from reception. Any medication provided by families for their child at school, needs to have a medication authority for staff to dose your child when they need it.
School does not provide any medication for students.
Thank you for your cooperation with this matter.
Should you have any questions do not hesitate to call health centre and speak to one of the first aid officers.
Kind regards
Health centre Team
