COVID-19 related information

As we learn to live safely with coronavirus (COVID-19), there are actions we can all take to help reduce the risk of catching COVID-19 and passing it on to others.

- We will aim to carry out activities outdoors as much as possible and ventilate the indoor spaces.

- We will encourage practicing good hygiene: washing hands, covering coughs and sneezes

- We will regularly clean shared spaces

We ask parents/carers to not send their child if they show any Covid related symptoms.

We are following the current government's guidance for out of school organisations, and will act and update our guidelines accordingly.
