MEDICAL SUPPORT PLANS AND EPIPENS
Does your child have medical information, a condition the school should be aware of or require medication? If so please complete the following form in your Parent Portal under SchoolEngage Student Forms on the left. Then choose Student and a new Medical Form will be available for you to complete.
--> --> B2.) Medical Status Update/Request for Medical Treatment form <-- <--
This form is required every year. We use this important information to alert any staff members, including substitute teachers, of any existing medical needs we need to be aware of.
If your child has medication at school (in their backpack or in the office) you must fill out the medical form with all relevant information related to the medication.
If you child requires use of an EpiPen, please make sure this is filled out ASAP.
Please note: the submission of a Medical Form is required prior to medication being sent to the school - We will not be administering any medication until this is complete.

HALLOWEEN INFORMATION
Our Halloween at St. Martin's will take place on Monday, October 31st at 1 PM. Halloween is back this year. We are permitted to hold our traditional parade and have a virtual Parade Live on the Google Meet to accommodate anyone that cannot make it
As parents can come to help with costumes (as in the past), we are asking students to come NOT dressed in the morning and they will dress after their lunch recess for the day keeping the following in mind:
- Choose a simple costume that promotes independence. Please minimize accessories etc. as well. This will make classroom work, recess, PE activity, and the use of the washroom much easier. No COVID masks required.
- Each class will communicate how they will run some fun "Halloween" activity at some point in the day. You may send a pre-packaged snack for your child to enjoy at this time.
- As done in the past, the majority of the day will be devoted to curriculum.
Thank you for your help. We want to ensure students are as safe as possible while enjoying this special day.
