  • Covid-19 Update for Parents

    Fri 30 Apr 2021

    Dear Parents and Guardians

     

    I wish to inform you that 2 members of our school community has tested positive for Covid-19.

     

    I have sought the most up-to-date advice from the Public Health Agency and one class bubble in the primary school and one in the nursery school have had to close for a 10 day period.

     

    The parents of the pupils affected have been notified.

     

    I do appreciate the concerns of  parents, pupils and the wider school community and wish to reassure you that every precaution has been taken.

     

    Ensuring the safety of pupils and staff is my absolute priority and I will continue to monitor this situation carefully and keep you informed. Parents or guardians with any questions or concerns are welcome to contact me at jarmstrong775@c2kni.net.

     

    Kind regards,

     

    Mr J. Armstrong
