Allergy Alert 

Just a reminder that due to members of our school who are sensitive to food items such as nuts, peanuts, peanut butter and shell fish we ask that you refrain from bringing these foods into the school. Thanks for helping us be safe.

Accidents and Injuries

Should your child be injured at school the following procedures will be followed:

• A staff member will take action to ensure the safety of the student and administer minor first aid.
• The parent or guardian will be telephoned and apprised of the situation and asked, if necessary, to come to the school to advise us of their wishes regarding their child’s injury.
• If we are unable to contact the parent or guardian, the administrator in charge will decide if emergency treatment is necessary.
• If immediate emergency treatment appears to be necessary, the child will be transported via ambulance to Alberta Children’s Hospital and the parents or guardian will be advised as soon as possible.

Cologne / Perfume Reminder

We would just like to remind students and parents that students are not allowed to bring cologne, perfume or body spray to school. We do not feel it is necessary in an educational setting. Many people are sensitive to these products, in the same way that others are sensitive to nuts and can be adversely affected by exposure to them.

Illness at School 

Students who are ill should ask the teacher’s permission to report to the office. In the office, parents will be contacted regarding permission to go home. School personnel are not permitted to supply students with any type of medication. Parents will be asked to come and get their child if the student cannot continue their schooling.

Medical Emergencies 

If a student is injured, staff trained in first aid will respond. Parents will be notified as soon as possible. Please note that the school will always err on the side of caution and call 911 to have an ambulance respond should that be deemed appropriate in the circumstance.

Medication

Does your son or daughter have any medications or an epipen that should be stored in the office or any medical information we should know about?

Please let us know asap and the appropriate form will be sent home for you to complete and return.
