We have been advised by our environmental health colleagues that we must strongly encourage you (parents or carers) to have your child tested.
Your child may only return to our service if your child receives a negative test result or after 10 calendar days of self isolation.
We must also advise that, as the household must self-isolate until a negative test result is confirmed, this will impact on siblings too and they cannot attend the school or centre either. This is also the advise if a member of the household becomes ill with COVID symptoms.
We appreciate that this is a difficult time for everyone and we remind you that we are here to support in anyway we can.
If you have any further questions or queries please do not hesitate to call.
