Medical Support

Some children have specific medical needs, for example asthma, diabetes or severe allergic reactions. It is important that all our staff fully understand certain medical conditions so that they are able to respond to a medical emergency. I work closely with the students, family and staff to provide individual child-centered health care plans.

Health Screening

We offer every young person a confidential health surveillance check per year. Height, weight, Body Mass Index (BMI) and vision are checked and information or advice regarding specific health issues is available on request.

Education

Health and education go hand in hand and both have impact on our children’s current and future well-being, the more they understand about adopting a healthy lifestyle the better their future lives will be. Useful community and website links are placed on the display boards outside the Nurse’s Room.
