Dear parents, we have had a number of reports of the tummy bug in both classes. If your child has had diarrhoea or vomiting they must remain at home for 48 hours from the last incident of vomiting or diarrhoea to ensure we are able to remain open. Please inform the school of any illness - you can report via this message.
