Dorothy

As a result of Dorothy's participation in the Zone Cross Country last Monday, she wasn't feeling well the following day which was also the schedule of the NAPLAN test (literacy test in the afternoon). She was complaining of sore legs and back pain and didn't feel like to go to school. I was worried because if she will be absent on that day she gonna miss the NAPLAN test. I gave her pain reliever medicine before she went to school. I told her too to ask permission from the office after she finish the test to go home early and to ring me so I can pick her up. At around 11:00 am, I received a call from the school office that Dorothy was with them because of sore legs and wanted to go home. Without delay, I went straight to the school office and when I arrived Dorothy was looking tired and told me that she cannot wait the NAPLAN test in the afternoon and wanted to go home. I asked the lady in the office just to make sure of what to do if I take Dorothy home and would not be able to take the test. She then informed me to get a Doctor's certificate and not to worry because she can take it when she comes back and so we went straight to our GP for a check up and to get a Doctore's Certificate. The good news was Dorothy was fit to go back to school the following day and was able to take part of the test and the next part was last Friday.
