With higher UV levels from September onwards it is important to use a combination of sun-protection

measures to minimise the risk of skin and eye damage and skin cancer.

Between 1 SEPTEMBER TO 30 APRIL when outdoors at MHPS, it is COMPULSORY that staff and students

wear appropriate clothing that covers as much skin as possible and a legionnaire cap to protect the head,

face, neck and ears. Staff and students should also apply SPF 30+ broad spectrum sunscreen, use shade

whenever possible and if practical, sunglasses should also be worn.

Students without appropriate hats must sit in the shade in the main courtyard during their breaks,

NO HAT! NO PLAY! NO SUN!

MHPS appreciates your support in our efforts to encourage your child about the importance of being

SunSmart. MHPS legionnaire caps can be purchased at the school office for $6.
