Health and Safety Update
Thank you for your support following the information letter about Swine Flu that was sent to parents yesterday. I was very pleased to hear today that the parent that was suffering from the flu symptoms is feeling much better and is hoping to return to work next week. Please continue to follow the health guidelines in order for everyone to have a healthy summer holiday.
It is always important to practice respiratory and hand hygiene techniques, which can reduce the risk of catching or spreading swine flu, such as:
Covering your nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing, using a tissue when possible.
Disposing of dirty tissues promptly and carefully.
Maintaining good basic hygiene, for example washing hands frequently with soap and water to reduce the spread of the virus from your hands to face or to other people.
Cleaning hard surfaces (e.g. door handles)frequently using a normal cleaning product.
