Flu strains change each year and so you and your family need to be vaccinated every year.

Please remind your children to regularly wash their hands and cover coughs and sneezes.

If your child is ill, keep them at home and notify the school as soon as possible.

Seek medical advice if you are concerned about your child’s health.

Let’s work together to keep everyone healthy.

Being in nature is great for both mental and physical wellbeing. Even just five minutes a day spent exercising in nature is proven to benefit our wellbeing. Plan your next adventure outdoors today.
