In the event of illness:

Children should not attend if they have been ill or absent from school during the day.

If a child has developed diarrhoea, sickness or any other contagious illness during the day, they will not be admitted.

If your child is off sick or has been collected early due to illness, please inform us through the school office.

If a child becomes ill during the session, Parents/Carers will be contacted to collect the child.
