Key school policies are found in this section. Please take the opportunity to read these policies as they contain essential information about the school’s attendance procedures. The school’s uniform policy and medical procedures. You will also find information on the school’s approach to computer use and many others. Please contact us if you require more information on any of these areas.
Full details of this policy are circulated to all parents at the beginning of the new year. A reply slip will be required for all students who live in areas which could come under threat of bushfires. Until you have all of this detail, it is sufficient to know that students will be kept at school if a hazard exists.
To ensure all student details kept on the school’s database are up to date and accurate, please fill out the Change of Contact Details form or contact Student Services on 83389763.
If a student is ill in class, he/she should inform the teacher and report to the Medical Suite (Student Services) with a signed movement slip in the diary. The Certified Senior First Aid Officer will contact the parent if required (emergency contact number is essential). The student must not go home, or back to class, without “signing out” from the Medical Suite. Medicines are not issued from the Medical Suite, or administered by staff.
If a student has a specific health or medical condition, an Individual First Aid Plan needs to be completed and signed by the student’s doctor and presented to student services for the school’s records. It is also vital that all parent/caregiver contact details are kept up to date.
Please advise of any First Aid plans, or Change of Contact details, by supplying the appropriate forms. The required forms are available under the Parents Page of this site (Change of Contact, and First Aid sections).
