Parents  are  required  to  update  their  child's  medical  records  annually  and
                     throughout the year as circumstances change. The school will send a medical form
                     to the parents at the beginning of the summer break and expect the parents to
                     have it filled in by their pediatrician or family doctor and upload the same on the
                     link provided in the circular.
                     In case of any medical attention, the teacher will send the student with a covering
                     note to the school medical centre, where the student will be given appropriate
                     treatment. In case of an acute emergency, like an accident or illness which may
                     necessitate  urgent  medical  treatment,  including  surgery,  the  parents  will  be
                     informed  and  if  the  parents  cannot  be  reached,  the  school    will  act  “in  loco
                     parentis” for the student and is authorised for any such treatment or surgery
                     which, in its sole discretion (which discretion will not be unreasonably exercised),
                     may be deemed necessary.

                     Teachers have been instructed not to administer any medication to the students. In
                     case medication is needed, the parent will send a written note to the class teacher
                     who will ensure that the school doctor/nurse administers it.

                     All parents must sign the emergency permission form and the undertaking of
                     Exemption from Liability in the Event of Medical emergencies. Please keep the
                     school informed of any changes in the medical condition of your child.

                 f)  Canteen

                     The dining hall serves vegetarian snacks and lunch to students. The school canteen
                     committee comprises teachers from various sections, canteen manager, canteen
                     chef, dietician, and an external chef. The menu for the entire month is prepared in
                     advance to ensure that it provides a wide range of healthy well-balanced meals &
                     snacks, meeting the strict regulations laid down by the government. The school
                     cannot cater to special meal requests. Students may bring their own lunch / snack
                     to school. They should bring tiffin / snack boxes with them at the start of the school
                     day. Students are not permitted to receive delivery of lunch / snacks while at school.
                     The menu is sent to all parents and staff at the beginning of the month.

                     Students have a choice of buying snacks during their respective breaks using their
                     ID cards, which also serve as a student wallet.

                 g)  Transport

                     The school has an air-conditioned bus service for students to and from the school.
                     Each bus is equipped with a first aid kit, fire extinguisher, seat belts, GPS monitoring
                     system and video camera.
