Health And Safety

Llinos Garstang, Sian Morris, Sylvia Kingman and Mrs Lona Owen have attended a full first aid course which is updated every three years.

All reasonable care will be taken of your child whilst at the school.

The Early Bird and Breakfast Club staff will look after pupils who attend the Clubs (Sylvia King-man, and Claire Harris).

Teaching staff will supervise pupils from 8.50 am following the Breakfast Club.

Medicine

We will not administer medicines to pupils unless the relevant form is completed by the parent beforehand. Forms are available from the school office and on our school website. The same applies to inhalers. Please ensure that you supply the school with a second inhaler and an expanding chamber with the child’s name clearly marked on the sealed bag to prevent the build up of dust. Inhalers must be taken on school trips/visits/swimming.
