Elvis Kids Research Study

More Information:

Recently we published evidence that nasal irrigation with salt water helped reduce the cold in adults. We have also shown the mechanism for how salt water helps with the common cold when applied on the nasal epithelium. Our research showed that cells use the chloride from the salt water to fight viral infections.  Hence, we are now testing if salt water nose drops helps children fight the cold.

If you have a child under 7 years of age, you may be able to join the fight.

The Children’s Hospital in Edinburgh are doing a study of salt water nose drops to see if it helps get rid of the cold faster.

Your child does not need to have a cold right now to take part!

You can join right now by calling/texting 07973657457 for an appointment to sign up and to be taught what to do the next time your child has a cold.

Your child does not need to attend.

Families completing the study will receive travel expenses and a £30 voucher to compensate for any inconvenience.

Autism Awareness in P3 and P4

L.I. I am learning about autism and that we all have differences and similarities.

Ness, Rannoch and Tay clans have been finding out all about autism for World Autism Acceptance Week. We shared our prior knowledge about autism and then read some stories to find out more. We recognised that autism is one of many things that make someone unique and we celebrated this by making venn diagrams to show our similarities and differences. Some of the pupils were keen to share their knowledge with others so we made a video showing our understanding and ideas about autism and why awareness is important.
