Important Covid-19 note to all parents and carers

 Dear Parents/ Carers

 As Covid-19 cases nationwide are rising we will do all we can to keep, children, staff and families safe during

 this difficult time.

 Therefore Lavenham Pre-school will be very strict with sending home any children displaying even mild symptoms

 of Covid-19 ( high temperature, lost of taste or smell or cough).

 We will ask parents to book a PCR test immediately and only send their children back to Pre-school if the test is

 negative.

 We are not a medical experts and we won't be able to differ between cold cough and Covid-19 cough, so

 please be understanding.

 We do apologise in advance for any inconvenience it may cause, but keeping everyone safe will be our priority.

 Thank you for your understanding

 Lavenham Pre-school Team

COVID-19 updateS:
     Let's work together to keep
            everyone safe
  If a child displays a temperature, continuous cough or loss of taste or
smell on drop off they must be sent home and asked to get a PCR test
and isolate until results are back and then follow government guidelines.
If a child develops a temperature, a continuous cough or loss of taste or
smell whilst in the setting all other children will be taken to another area.
Member of staff will stay with the child showing symptoms in isolation
until they are collected
If it is not possible to isolate the child, then they must be moved to an
area which is at least 2 meters away from others.

If possible, windows must be opened for ventilation.

Personal protective Equipment (PPE) must be worn by the staff member
caring for the child while they await collection.

 Staff and children who have been in contact with a child who is
suspected of having Covid-19 are not required to go home unless they
display symptoms.

Please do not bring your child into the pre-school if they display a
temperature, continuous cough or loss of taste or smell

*Primary aged pupil daily testing is at parental discretion. Pupils who are
household contacts of a PCR-confirmed positive case (e.g., parent, sibling
has tested positive) or identified by NHS Test and Trace as close
contacts of a positive case - are also advised, where possible, to continue
to attend the setting, undertake daily LFD testing while awaiting the
results of a PCR (exempt if already tested positive via PCR is past 90
days).

The PCR should be taken on day 5 from first contact with the
symptomatic positive case (if the case was asymptomatic, from swab
date).

Forest School-updates
Children are getting more familiar with Forest School side. They are eager to invent new games
and share ideas with their friends. The most popular game they have been playing lately is sliding
down the muddy hill and helping each other climb back up again. Children are using sticks to pull
their friends up. We were also practicing gross motor skills when painting using sticks and looking
                                           for insects.
