¡¡¡¡ We
offer a high level of health care here at Victoria.
Every morning, each child is checked by the school doctor
to ensure that they are in good health. At this time,
if there are any special medications or vitamins parents
would like their child to take throughout the day, they
may give them to the doctor at this time with instructions
and the doctor will make sure that medicines will be
issued properly. The doctor is available throughout
the day to talk with parents about any concerns, or
to do deal with any common playground scrapes as well.
Throughout the year, we invite specialists to check
the children¡¯s teeth, eyes, take blood, etc. and we
also constantly measure their weight and height
¡¡¡¡We offer breakfast, lunch and morning and afternoon
snacks to the children every day. Our school doctors
design a menu that is focused on balanced nutrition
with a variety of different kinds of meals and snacks
that encourage the children to try different kinds of
foods. We are very concern with teaching the children
about hygiene around mealtimes, as well as proper table
manners.
¡¡¡¡We will post children¡¯s menu in school, upload
it to the internet, and send a copy home ahead of time.
Parents should inform the school, document in the Children¡¯s
Health Record and record in Health History/Record in
the Students¡¯ Handbook if the child is allergic to
any food. For the benefit of all of our children, parents,
please do not send food of any kind, specifically candy
or treats, to school with your child. |
