    I wouldn't send her, she might need to rest for a little while longer to fight it off. I wouldn't worry about getting behind in prep xoxoxo

    Whenever my kids are like that (really high temp that comes and goes) it's always a bloody ear infection. DS has even had a burst ear drum once. I'd take them to the Dr. to get them checked for those sort of things.

    We don't have prep here. She goes to primary school which is why i was worried she'd fall behind since they learn a lot this year.

    I took her temp just then and it's back to 36.5.

    As a teacher, you could always ask her teacher for some work to do at home if you're worried she'll miss stuff.
    As a parent-to-be, I'd take her to the doc, just to be on the safe side.
    If you do decide to send her, let her (and her teacher) know that if she feels worse, you can come and collect her.

    Prep here IS primary school - and I still wouldn't worry about her falling too far behind. The teacher will probably have some worksheets she can do and she can throw glue and paper around at home too..
