Student Health Care

A reminder to notify the school about your child’s health care needs.

We welcome information from parents about your child’s health, even if you are not requesting specific support from our school. Information about allergies, medical conditions such as asthma and diabetes and other health care related issues should be provided to the school by parents.

It is also important that you let us know if your child’s health care needs change or if a new health condition develops. Please make sure you notify our office staff of any changes to your contact details or the contact details of other people nominated as emergency contacts.

Online Safety

As parents and carers you know your child better than anyone and have the best opportunity to support and guide them to have safer online experiences.

This guide covers some of the key online safety issues for young people and includes a range of practical tips and advice on what to do if things go wrong. You can also find a list of important services that can offer extra support.
