Illness and Medicines

If a child is not well enough to be in school, the parent/carer must contact the school office or email our attendance email account by 9am. Any absence that is not reported by this time will be chased.

If a child has been sick, the child has been sick or has diarrhea, the child must stay off school for 48 hours. If the child has been diagnosed with another illness, please contact the school office to find out about the return date. 

 

If the child is well enough for school but needs prescribed medicines (antibiotics ) you will need to fill in a form giving staff permission to administer the medicine.

Asthma inhalers should stay with the child in their classroom, but all other medicine should be handed in to the school office.
