At Soong Ching Ling Kindergarten we ensure constant vigilance to security and safety. To enable us to do this:
- We ask that parents or others who have the responsibility for bringing children to/from the Kindergarten carry their ID cards at all times and present them when required.
- Parents are also kindly requested to report to their child's class teacher if they are bringing/collecting a child during the middle of the school day.
- We request that parents who wish to view the Kindergarten during school hours first report to the office, not visit a classroom independently.
- Drivers of all vehicles should observe the speed limit of 5mph and drive with utmost caution.
- Smoking is not allowed in the school classrooms, grounds or car parks at any time.
- Regular fire-drills are organised for staff and pupils each term.
Illness During Kindergarten Hours
If a child is unwell during the school day, class teachers will attend to their immediate needs. If a child should need to go home, the teacher will contact parents immediately. In the unlikely event of a child needing hospital attention, there are clear guidelines for procedures. Parents will always be contacted promptly.
It is essential that up-to-date home and business contact numbers, plus contact numbers of friends and neighbours willing to assist are submitted to our Administration Office upon enrolment.
It is also vital that parents provide relevant and up-to-date information about their child's health.
Medication
We will only accept medication that has been prescribed by a doctor.
If you need us to give any medication to your child during school hours, please bring it to our school doctor clearly labelled in Chinese or English. Please ask your doctor to write on the prescription the name of the medication (including the ingredients), the dosage to be given and the number of times your child has to take the prescription each day, the duration of the treatment, the date the prescription is written as well as the contact details of the doctor.
Medication should be in its original packaging. Some hospitals or pharmacies will label the medication box with the prescription information. This is also acceptable as long as the label contains all the requested information. Please bring a copy of the prescription along with the medication to our school doctor.
In special circumstances such as allergies or asthma, parents should inform teachers of essential medication.
Please feel free to download a copy of our school Medication Policy.
We recommend that you print it out for easy future reference.
