If your child is absent from school for any reason school needs to know. Please telephone the school by 9.15 a.m. on the first day of absence.
We need to know the reason (as schools are required to distinguish between authorised and unauthorised absence of pupils) and how long your child is likely to be off. Please ask your Doctor for advice regarding how long your child should be kept off school.
If medicine is prescribed, arrangements can only be made for the administration in school if the dosage is x4 daily. Parents are asked to complete a request form and all medicines must be handed to Mrs McCrossen or Mrs Lee in the school office, in the original packaging, clearly labelled with date, contents, pupil’s name and dosage.
Our Family Support Worker in conjunction with our Education Welfare Officer is always available to give advice if required.- PE kit should be blue/black shorts, white t-shirt and trainers for indoor games. If it is outdoor games we are likely to go out when it is cold/damp so appropriate jogging bottoms and fleece/top will be needed. Please ensure all these items are named. Long hair must be tied back and earrings should not be worn on PE days.
