Coronavirus update
We have just received an e-mail update from the Minister of Education, Mr Peter Weir informing us that schools are to remain open. However, I have taken the decision to cancel swimming until after Easter as a precaution.
As a result of this school will be open on Wednesday as previously planned. Breakfast Club has now been cancelled this week.
Children and staff will be washing hands more often during the school day and we would ask any parents/carers to stop at the school office and we can deal with any requests there Eg: collecting a child early.
Please remember at all times to follow Public Health Agency Advice.
