Student health and safety

We are committed to ensuring a safe and happy environment for your child.

We support your child’s health and safety through a range of strategies including:

For more information, visit the student wellbeing section of the department’s website.

Medication at school:

If your child requires prescription medication to be administered to them during school hours please fill out the following document - Student Health Condition Medical Support form and email or bring it in to the office with your child's medication.

Anaphylaxis and Asthma:

If your child suffers from Anaphylaxis we require an updated copy of their ASCIA plan and an EPI-PEN for emergencies. 

We cannot guarrantee that our school is nut free, however we encourage all students to pack a nut free lunch box. 

If your child suffers from Asthma please provide ventolin and their spacer along with an Asthma Health Care Plan from their Doctor. 

 

COVID-19:

NSW staff and students should not attend work or school if unwell, even with mild symptoms of COVID-19. 

  • Any person with any COVID-19 symptoms will be sent home from school and should not return until they have received a negative test result and are symptom free.

  • In circumstances where children have other medical reasons for recurrent symptoms (such as allergies) a letter from their GP is sufficient to negate the requirement for a negative test.

  • Anyone who is unwell with COVID-19 symptoms is strongly encouraged to get tested and self isolate until a negative result is received. 

Like all NSW public schools, we promote the healthy development of students through:

  • school programs and practices that protect and promote health and safety
  • supporting individual students who need help with health issues
  • providing first aid and temporary care of students who become unwell or who have an accident at school.

Student wellbeing

Like all NSW public schools, we provide safe learning and teaching environments to encourage healthy, happy, successful and productive students.

The department is committed to creating quality learning opportunities for children and young people. These opportunities support wellbeing through positive and respectful relationships and fostering a sense of belonging to the school and community.

The Wellbeing Framework for Schools helps schools support the cognitive, physical, social, emotional and spiritual development of students and allows them to connect, succeed and thrive throughout their education.

Positive Behaviour for Learning

At our school, we use Positive Behaviour for Learning – a whole-school approach for creating a positive, safe and supportive school climate where students can learn and develop. Our whole school community works together to establish expected behaviours and teach them to all students.
