FIRST AID

Student Illness

First Aid

If students are unwell they should report to their class teacher House Leader or HSO. If necessary the student may be taken to sick bay located in the Administration building. The College will contact parents immediately if students are too unwell to attend class. It is essential that the College has all emergency contact details and is informed immediately if there is a change to this information. Students are not permitted to phone parents directly without permission from a staff member.

Accident Insurance

The Department of Education and Early Childhood Development does not provide accident insurance or ambulance cover for students. Parents and carers of students, who do not have student accident insurance/ ambulance cover, are responsible for paying the cost of medical treatment including the cost of ambulance transport and any other transport costs.

The Department of Education and Early Childhood Development cannot advise parents/guardians on whether to purchase a student accident policy/ambulance cover or which policy to purchase. It is recommended that parents/guardians seek assistance in the matter from an insurance broker or find a suitable personal accident insurer.
