Health
Dental Clinic
We no longer have the Dental clinic on site, however they can be contacted on 0800Talkteeth (0800 825 583 384) for any enquiries or emergencies.
Healthy Eating
As a healthy eating school, we are very fortunate to be provided with free fruit and ‘milk in schools” for all our children on a daily basis. We also receive ‘kai for the future’ sandwiches, daily, from a local provider.
Sickness and Accidents Sickness
If a child is unwell at school they are referred to the sickbay by Teaching Staff. All medical treatments are recorded into a medical book. If a child is ill, they will be attended to appropriately.
The parent/caregiver or emergency contact, will be contacted immediately, should a child need to be collected or if it is necessary to consult a doctor. In case of a serious injury, if we are unable to make contact with home, we will transport the child to the Family Doctor or to the hospital for treatment.
Teachers/Staff will not administer any medication except on written authority by the parent/caregiver. All medication MUST be labelled and named and show date.
Smoke Free Environment
From January 2004 as a result of the introduction of the Smoke-free Environments Act, it became mandatory that all schools are 100% smokefree at all times both indoors and on school grounds. Signs are put up stating that smoking is forbidden.
