Pinewoods provides vegetarian diet for its students. The school diet is drawn up by its experts, is full and nutritious, cooked in hygienic kitchen under the direction of a well qualified and experienced catering staff.

Meals are supervised by Mistress or Master on duty. The Student & Staff Food Committee meets regularly to give suggestions.

Though the diet normally does not require to be supplemented yet special diet is supplied only on grounds of medical necessity as certified by a Medical Officer, at the cost of parents.

Parents are allowed to provide Bournvita, Boost, Complan, etc.

HEALTH-CARE

Children must be thoroughly fit if they are to derive the maximum benefit from the education and life of the school. They will be subject to a medical examination on admission.

The school has well equipped infirmaries separate for boys and girls. The School Medical Officer, who attends everyday on fixed timings, maintains the health record of each child. Parents are required to submit the medical form with required tests reports.

Dispensary

Special interest is taken in the development and welfare of each child. The children are weighed regularly and the school has a clearly defined programme of preventive medical inspections, dental inspection and eye-tests. The diet is constantly inspected and revised. We should like to take this opportunity of drawing the attention of parents to the fact that the loss of a kilogram or so in weight during a very active term is not in itself a sign of poor or failing health.

Parents sometimes worry unnecessarily. We would stress that children are always under close observation by the School Medical Officer. If a child spends more than 48 hours in the infirmary, the parent is informed and daily progress reports are supplied until the child can join school again. Parents can telephonically enquire about the child's well being from the office.

Visiting hours at the school during child's sickness are to be decided by consulting the Principal.

Parents and Visitors are not permitted to supply fruits or sweets and food-stuffs or medicines to patients without the permission of the School Medical Officer. In the event of a child requiring treatment beyond the scope of the school he/ she will be transferred to some hospital in Pune.

Tonics and patient's medicines will be allowed only with the permission of the School Medical Officer.

All treatments and medicines are billed and to be paid by parents.
