Staying Safe in the Sun

A message from the School Nurses about staying safe in the sun.

As we are now seeing warmer weather, we would like to remind parents/carers about the importance of protecting children against the harmful effects of the sun. They do access both outdoor learning and play during the school day.

You will have consented to and provided information relating to sunscreen on the Supporting Health in Education document.

Students should come to school with sun hats and a clearly labelled bottle of sunscreen which can be applied, subject to permission having been granted. They also need to drink more to keep hydrated.

There are 2 posters attached which provide more information.

 

Best wishes

School Nurse Team.
