Advice on Coronavirus from Public Health England The Government and NHS are well prepared to deal with this virus. The Coronavirus can cause flu-like systems, including fever, cough and difficulty breathing. The infection is not serious for most people including children. There is currently no vaccine. Most people get better with rest, water to drink and medicine for pain. The chance of being in contact with the virus is currently low in the UK. Germs can live on some surfaces for hours. To protect yourself and others:
Always carry tissues with you and use them to catch your cough or sneeze.
Bin the tissue, and to kill the germs, wash your hands with soap and water, or use a sanitiser gel.
o
Try not to touch your eyes, nose and mouth with unwash hands
o
Do not share items that come into contact with your mouth such as cups and bottles Attendance Matters
We still have an increasing number of children that are late on a daily basis. All children should be in school for 8:50am so that registers can be promptly taken. Please support your child in arriving at school on time and support them in seeing the importance of this.
Thank you for your continued support. Mrs. Adams – Head of School
