Medical Forms and Medication
S1 medical forms have been
issued to pupils, could I please ask that you return these ASAP with the
medication. We have a whole school
sponsored walk on Friday, 28 September 2018, and the forms and medication must
be in school before this. It is
imperative if your child has a medical condition that requires medication e.g.
Asthma, we need to have an inhaler in school for them.
