We strictly abide by the Health Department guidelines on infectious illnesses and exclusion of care.
If a child has a temperature of 38.5°C or above, coupled with other signs of unwellness, educators will administer Panadol and ask that the child be picked up from the service.
HEATH AND SAFETY
We are sure all parents will appreciate our concern for protecting the health and safety of all the children attending the service.
The Director/Supervisor reserves the right to send home or refuse attendance to any child whom they consider is not well enough to attend or whose illness may affect the health of other children, families and educators in the service.
In cases where sudden illness occurs or where the Director/Supervisor considers child to be showing signs of an infectious or contagious illnesses (for example: mumps or chickenpox), the parent will be notified and asked to collect their child as soon as possible.
