Child flu vaccine: help beat flu with a wee scoosh
In Scotland, all children aged 2 to 5 years (not yet in school) offered the nasal (nose) spray flu vaccine.
To help raise awareness about the nasal (nose) spray vaccine and how it’s the easiest and safest way for children to get protected against flu, Public Health Scotland is launching a brand-new campaign titled ‘Help beat flu with a wee scoosh’.

We’ve developed a suite of static and video assets, alongside suggested captions and alternative text for you to share across your social media channels.Please feed these into your planned activity regularly using the hashtag #WeeScoosh. Using the hashtag is important as it allows us to monitor usage, and helps to informs future campaigns.

The toolkit also includes digital banners and suggested copy for email, app notifications and text messages.

Please feel free to share these resources with any relevant channels or networks.

There are also a range of resources available on the Public Health Scotland website for children aged 2-5 including informed consent leaflets, briefings and videos.

Welcome back

Welcome back everyone for a new school year.

We have had a very successful first few days and look forward to many more together.

Our new children in both school and nursery  have settled well and are already well on their learning journey.

We would like to wish our former pupils good luck their first year  at Inverkeithing High School and Dollar Academy.
