Noticeboard Information

Hay Fever

Melbourne’s hay fever season runs from 1 October to 31 December each year. 

Itchy ears and throat, a runny nose, sneezing and watery red eyes can all impact your day. For an unfortunate few, the effects of hay fever are much more severe.  Headaches, tiredness and difficulty concentrating can make springtime unbearable.

Grass pollen in the air is a significant cause of hay fever.  Pollen levels are the highest in late spring and early summer.  The good news is pollen counts are published daily at Clyde Primary School on our sick bay door via the sneeze-o-meter graph during hay fever season, allowing people affected by the condition to take precautions.

Please see your doctor if you have concerns or need a plan put in place.
