First Aid

❄️ WINTER WELLNESS UPDATE   ❄️

Winter has arrived!  

These colder months are the peak time for illness, in particular respiratory illnesses including COVID-19, influenza and RSV. We are already seeing numerous cases of all these illnesses within the school community.

To protect yourself, your family and the school community, there are a  number or actions that you can take to stay healthy and prevent the spreading of infections.

1. Stay home if you are unwell until you are symptom free.
2. Get you flu and COVID019 vaccinations as soon as possible.
3. Wash your hands regularly
4. Sneeze and cough into your elbow.
5. Wear a face mask if you are symptomatic.
6. If your child tests positive for COVID-19, the Department of Health recommends that they should isolate for a minimum of 5 days and only return once the symptoms have fully resolved.

Thanks for helping us to stop the spread and in having a healthy, happy school environment for our students, families and staff.
