Dear Parent or Carer
You will be aware from updated government guidance that the self-isolation period for close contacts of a positive case of coronavirus (COVID-19) has changed from 14 to 10 days. This change also applies to those who are currently self-isolating. Any new cases identified for self-isolation will be advised to self-isolate for 10 days.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION re Track and Trace
Please note that school will be open on Friday 18th December as planned, but please do not send your child to school if they are feeling unwell or have been in contact with anyone who is unwell and awaiting a Covid-19 test result. I ask for your full support in this matter as we try to prevent pupils and staff from being ill during their Christmas holiday.
Please inform school if your child has Covid-19 or a member of the family or close contact tests positive over the first few days of the Christmas holiday. If your child shows symptoms of Covid-19 within 48 hours of the end of the school term or tests positive for Covid-19 having shown symptoms within 48 hours of the end of school, you should report this to school immediately by emailing office@helmshore.lancs.sch.uk so that we are able to contact anyone that has been in close contact with your child.
We will be operating our Track and Trace system up until the 24th December 2020.
Please visit https://www.gov.uk/coronavirus and the school website www.helmshoreprimaryschool.co.uk for additional guidance.
We thank you for your support in the matter.
Mrs C A Myers
Headteacher
