You can do this by sending an email to Mrs Robyn Ericksen at robyne@howickint.school.nz or alternatively in person at the office. By sharing this information, you are helping our school staff to better support your child's health needs to the best of our ability while they are at school.

When a student starts feeling unwell at school they must report this to their homeroom teacher.  Their teacher will issue them with a green card and send them up to the office, where the first aider will assess them and then call their caregiver if they need to be sent home. Students are not allowed to email or contact their parents to arrange for them to be picked up.

Students who need to leave early must have a signed note from their caregiver, or an email must be sent to their classroom teacher a day in advance. The caregiver will still need to come into the school to collect them and sign them out.
