Unless medicine needs to be taken four times a day, it should stay at home and be administered by you. Only medicines prescribed by a Doctor are permitted and only if the Doctor advises it to be safe to come to school.
Eye/nose/ear drops can only be administered by a parent.
If your child needs to take medicines three times a day please give your child medicine before school, after school and before bedtime. If it is impossible to give all medicines at home, please make arrangements with the School Secretary. You will be asked to complete a Medical Request form, a copy of which can be found at the bottom of this page.
All medicine brought into school must be in its original prescription container and clearly marked with the child’s name and the necessary instructions for administering same. Such medicines will be kept in the School Office during the day and should be collected by the parent or child at the end of the day. (It might be advisable for you to keep some extra medicine at home in case the medicine is forgotten at the end of the day.)
