Pupil Medication in School
It is imperative that any child with a medical condition requiring medication to be administered in school have supplies in the school. Parents/Carers are requested to fill in forms when handing in medication. The form clearly states that you accept responsibility for ensuring that the medication has not expired and that there is sufficient medication supplied to the school for your child. Please ensure all medication is handed into school ASAP.
Mrs Fraser





No food or drink in Classrooms
The PPP contact we have states that consumption of food and drink is not permitted in classrooms which have carpets rather than lino.  If there is any damage to carpets, then Amey may apply charges to the school to clear up unreasonable mess or repair carpet damage due to spills.
Pupils should eat their food at break/lunch in the dining room (or outside) and can then visit lunchtime rooms/clubs afterwards.
Mr Mackenzie
