HEALTH AND SAFETY: The provision of a safe environment in which children can work and play is considered to be of primary importance and, in consequence, the detailed Health and Safety Policy is reviewed regularly.
The full time Nurse ensures the children's well being in a calm and caring environment by treating any minor injuries and/or sickness; parents are contacted when necessary and the appropriate medical facility is sought if required. The Nurse carries out routine health screening in addition to planning and implementing the immunisation programme.
HOUSE SYSTEM: A House System operates within the School from Year 1 to Year 6. The system is designed to show that achievement can be recognised not only in curriculum areas but in all aspects of School life.
