Advice for Year 4 Children to Self-Isolate for 10 Days from 19th December, during the Christmas holidays.

We have been advised that there has been a confirmed case of COVID-19 within the year 4 bubble.

In line with the national guidance we recommend that children in year 4 stay at home and self-isolate for 10 days. This date means that year 4 children will need to isolate over Christmas Day. Whilst I am sure this is upsetting to you and your family, we are asking you to do this to reduce the further spread of COVID 19 to others in the community.

A letter has been sent to all parents of year 4 children and can be viewed here...

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS ONLY AFFECTS CHILDREN IN YEAR 4.
