Dear Parents & Carers
Happy New Year to all our school community and welcome back to a shiny new year and new term! A very warm welcome to all the new families that have joined us this term, we hope your children are very happy here.
We have lots of lovely things planned for the children for this term, so please make sure you keep up to date with the calendar as things do change from time to time. The calendar on Class Dojo is the easiest way of keeping up to date.
Kind regards
Mr McCadden
Contact details update
Christmas is a popular time for new phones so please make sure that we have the most current up to date number for you.
If you have moved house or your children spend some of the week with a separated parent, please remember we need both addresses for our files. We do, of course, keep all information secure and confidential.
NHS Pharmacy First Service
Did you know that the NHS Pharmacy First Service enables children and adults to get convenient access to healthcare advice and treatment where appropriate, for seven common conditions without the potential delay of having to wait for a GP appointment? Accessing the service may help children feel better and back to school as quickly as possible, as well as supporting parents/carers to also get better if they are unwell with one of the conditions covered under the service.
There is no need to make an appointment; parents or carers can pop into their local Boots pharmacy with their child and ask for help under the service.
Support for the following conditions can be accessed under the service, free of charge (unless NHS prescription charges apply):
The person will see a pharmacist in a private consultation room. The pharmacist will provide advice and, if clinically appropriate, offer to supply treatment for the condition. If treatment is provided, an electronic message will be sent to the person’s GP surgery so their health record can be updated.
Should the pharmacist be unable to help, they will direct the person to their GP surgery or other healthcare professional, as appropriate.
It's Cold Outside
With the weather looking like it will say in single or minus figures for the next week or so, please make sure your child has their jumper and a warm coat with sleeves in school every day.
If your child wants to bring in a woolly hat and/ or gloves please make sure all items are labelled with their name.
REPORTING YOUR CHILD ABSENT
Just a friendly reminder that children should be reported absent by 9.00am on the first day of absence by phone or email please.
If you know your child will not be in school due to illness, then please remember we have a 24hr answering machine for messages which can be left at any time.
AND FINALLY...
Sometimes amazing people forget how amazing they are… this is your reminder!! 😊
