​Health Issues

 Maris Stella Kindergarten is committed to provide a safe and healthy place. To avoid the spread of viruses, parents/caregivers (including domestic helpers) are obliged to do daily checks on their child's temperature and body for the following symptoms:

• has a persistent fever of 37.5 º C or higher;
• has symptoms such as unexplainable rash, vomiting, diarrhea, chronic cough or pink eye;
• becomes ill at school or develops new symptoms.
• contact the Kindergarten within 24 hours when your child contracts a communicable disease(i.e. chicken pox, dengue, hand, foot, and mouth) or a parasite (i.e. lice).
• Ensure that after a suspected or confirmed communicable disease or parasite, a child may only return to the nursery/kindergarten with a doctor's certification.

Administration of  medication to a child is the responsibility of parents. The school will not be responsible for it.
The child should only join class after full recovery from infectious diseases, such as Hand-Foot-Mouth disease (HFMD), measles, chicken pox, mumps, sore eyes, flue, SARS, etc, with a doctor's certification.
Please contact the kindergarten should your child contract any infectious disease. This is to allow us to keep track of the disease for prompt response.
If your child is unwell, please do not send him/her to school. Parents should keep him/her at home to rest so as to enable a speedy and thorough recovery.
Any pupil who does not appear well or notice to have any unusual symptoms of behavior will be sent home to seek medical advice.
