Letter to all parents.

14th Jan 2022

Dear Parents/Guardians,

I would like to thank you for your ongoing support and communication as we have navigated a challenging week in regards to controlling the spread of Covid-19 within our school community.

I must appeal to our school community that if there is a positive case of Covid within your household-PLEASE INFORM THE SCHOOL to discuss risk assessment measures and mitigations. This new variant is very transmissible and we aim to protect our children, families and staff. Securing substitute teachers at the moment is exceptionally difficult. If we cannot safely maintain staffing ratios we will have no other option than to close class bubbles. Please remain vigilant and if your child is unwell please keep them at home and inform the school.

 

Attached is a letter from the Minister for Education.

Kind Regards,

Mrs S. McCafferty
