Children's Health

Illness

Please inform School/ Nursery if your child is away from through illness so that absences can be recorded properly.

Medication

As a general principle we do not administer medication at school/nursery. However if medication is required e.g. Epi pens or inhalers appropriate forms must be completed.

Sickness/ Diarrhoea

Please note that your child must not return to nursery until 48 hours after their last bout of sickness or diarrhoea.

Head Lice(Nits)

Head lice (sometimes called nits) are a normal part of childhood - surveys among primary school children have found that nearly 1 in 10 have head lice at any one time.

We recommend that parents check their child(ren) regularly and inform school if head lice (nits) are found. Remember once a week – take a peek.

Further Concerns

If you require advice about your child’s illness and whether it is appropriate to be at nursery or school, please contact your GP.
