WEEK'S UP FOR 7 APRIL 2017



Hello, everyone, it is Friday again.  We trust you had a productive and pleasant week.  We are pleased to bring to you our weekly administrative update.

School fees for Term I 2017-2018
We are progressively sending out our invoices for the first term of the next academic year.  We would appreciate your attention to its payment.

The teachers make termly plans for the children, particularly in the academic areas.  In order for us to plan constructively, we require assurance of your child’s enrolment with us.  We request for your co-operation to settle your child’s school fees by the due date.  Should you be away during that time, we would appreciate it if you could make a payment before that.

Health
Our best response to maintaining a healthy environment for your children is to disallow children who are unwell, and this includes coughs and colds from entering the school building.  Hence our health check. While we do conduct 100% health check, we also rely on your co-operation in seeing to the health cards being completed.  You should only do so after you have checked your child before sending him/her to school.  This is a partnership of trust that we must ensure, for the welfare of our student population and members of staff. We append our health policy as published in our Parent's Handbook that has been provided to you.

QUOTE:
09 CONTAGIOUS DISEASES, PARTIALLY RECOVERED CHILDREN AND MEDICATION:


Children who contract an infectious disease must obtain a certificate of fitness issued by a registered medical practitioner in Singapore, before resuming school. Also, please keep us informed if your child has contracted an infectious disease, as we are obliged to maintain a proper record of such.  Your timely advice in this regard will also enable us to alert parents of other students to be on the lookout for signs of the disease contracted so the spread of infection could be contained.  Please be considerate and do ensure that your child is completely recovered and is past the infectious period prior to sending him/her back to school.

We cannot medicate your child at school, so if your child is receiving medication, please ensure he/she is kept at home and properly treated before resuming school.  You are advised against medicating your child at school.

Note - we are under instructions from the Ministry of Health and Ministry of Education to report cases of most communicable diseases. They include Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease, Chicken Pox, Rubella Mumps and Avian Disease. Please call us if you require clarification in this regard and we also invite you to visit the following website for further information. The school should be notified immediately, therefore when children contract these diseases so we can do the needful.  Please note that medical practitioners are also required to notify the authorities in the above circumstances.
