Head Bumps
From time to time you may receive a text from school to say that your child has had a head bump. Your child may also come home wearing a green wristband.
Every child who has a head bump is seen by a qualfied first aider. If there are no adverse effects, a text is sent to parents/carers to tell you about the head bump and to remind you to look out for any of the following:

Please seek medical attention if necessary.
