If your child should become ill or injured, or there should be an emergency at the school we will need to contact you quickly. Please complete the emergency contact details below with a list of names and telephone numbers that we should use to contact you. Please list the most appropriate number first, which is probably the parent or guardian most likely to be reachable by phone and able to respond quickly. Add other names and numbers of people we should contact if we cannot contact you on the first numbers, again, in order of preference. If your child needs emergency treatment, we will call an ambulance as well as phoning you. Our nearest hospital is Vanguard Community Health Centre and that is where your child will be taken in an emergency. The cost of ambulance transfer and treatment will be your responsibility. You may rest assured that this is a decision we will not take lightly, but neither will we delay seeking emergency medical treatment for your child while waiting for your approval. Please let us know if there is any special medical, religious or social information we would need, should your child require emergency medical attention.
