The week before last, I posted about DD being made to sit in strong sun with no hat and because of that had bad sunstroke.
Then I commented on how they tell parents to apply sun cream before coming to school and not bringing it with you and reapplying it. I think this is probably classed as neglect if then, a child burns due to not having sun cream on. This week, the kids are out all day doing sports week and have various activities planned either in the playground with very little shade or on the school field with not much either.
It's ironic as the school sent home an Ambre Solaire sun fact sheet last friday telling of sun burn dangers!!1
