Reports and Enterovirus

Progress Reports

All children between Year 1 and Year 6 will be bringing their progress reports home on the last day of term. Can you kindly note that because the Primary Section is so large now, I have asked my Deputy, Duncan Millward to help me with the reading of the reports. So, this time round, you will see my comments and signature on the reports of the children form Years 1, 3 and 5. and Mr Millward's comments and signature on the reports of the children from Years 2,4 and 6. In June we will reverse this.

Thank you for your understanding with this.

Enterovirus

We are continuing to hear from parents about their children being confirmed with enterovirus, but I do need to inform you, that we only suspend classes of the younger children where there are 3 or more confirmed cases. We follow the guide lines from the Health Authority, and their advice is that as children pass 6 or 7 years old, the disease gets less and less complicated with fewer serious symptoms, so classes can usually carry on as normal. However, it is absolutely critical that even the older children are fully recovered before they return to school. 

Again, another thank you for your support and understanding with this sensitive issue.
