Newsletter issue number 6 - Term 2. 17th December 2021

Dear Parents and Carers,

The children have enjoyed a week full of festive tasks and hopefully lots of goodies have made their way home to you via book bags!

This week, Father Christmas visited via ‘Zoom’ and class parties were a great success!

As we reach the end of term, I want to personally ‘thank you’ for working so hard with us to keep everyone safe and well.

We are looking forward to seeing you all in 2022, back, fit and ready to learn.

Finally, from all the staff at Greenvale. I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Enjoy your family time and above all stay safe and warm!

Mrs Allnutt

Head teacher

Thank you

From all the staff, thank you for the gifts and cards received this week.

Covid-19 Update

The main symptoms to be aware of are:

Temperature
A new, continuous cough
A loss or change to your sense of smell or taste

If you have any one of these symptoms you must isolate immediately and arrange to have a PCR test. Please DO NOT send your child into school if they have any of the above symptoms, or they have a positive Lateral Flow test.

If you take a Lateral Flow Test, and it shows as a positive, you must arrange to have a PCR test as confirmation and isolate until you have received the PCR result. The result of the test will need to be emailed to school as proof of the test outcome. The NHS will advise you of the date that your isolation period will end. The school email address is: Office@greenvale.medway.sch.uk

To find your local PCR testing centre, please refer to WWW.GOV.UK

At this time, the Government guidelines do not state that the whole house needs to isolate, only the individual that has tested positive or is displaying any one of the above symptoms.

If you are unsure of your symptoms please call the NHS Covid telephone no 119.

Thank you for your cooperation.
