Staying Well with Good Hygiene
Dear Parents/Guardians,
In school, your child is being reminded:
- How to cough or sneeze into tissues or elbow
- To bin used tissues (pupils may bring their own)
- How to wash hands properly (with soap and water for 20 seconds)
- To try to avoid touching eyes, nose, or mouth with unwashed hands
Please help us to promote good health by repeating these hygiene lessons at home.
It is important not to send your child to school if s/he is unwell
(a cough, shortness of breath, breathing difficulties or high temperature). If you are in any doubt, please let us know.
Your attention to these matters is important, thank you.
All schools have been asked that parents receive this update.
