Dear Parents and Carers,

Please find attached a Coronavirus Briefing for your information following the recent surge in cases. We would be obliged if you would take some time to read through this carefully.

For some time now we have politely requested that parents drop and go in the mornings, and that parents arrive just a few minutes before their child’s collection time at the end of day, in order to reduce congestion at the school gates. Unfortunately, more often than not, these requests have been disregarded.

We appeal to you once again to be respectful of the guidelines that schools are asked to follow and for the mitigations which are in place. The school grounds cannot be used as a meeting point for parents. Please make arrangements to socialise completely outwith the school grounds. The pavements around the school grounds are narrow and must be as clear as possible to allow parents, and our children, to pass through safely.

Please bear in mind that staff are simply following guidelines if they ask you to wear a mask, or ask you to move along, in order to keep everyone as safe and as healthy as they possibly can.

We wish everyone in our community a safe weekend.

Best Wishes,

Mossend PS and NC
