With the fair fast approaching Room 7 and 9 are on the hunt for donations of pieces of cotton or calico fabric that people might have lying around - anything over 20cm is perfect. This will be used to make Beeswax wraps which we will sell.

Some additional  information from the Public Health Nurse.

There is a chickenpox vaccine available to be purchased and administered from your gp practice by appointment,

and may be used for post-exposure prophylaxis for immune-competent people if given within 5 days of exposure.

Children with Chicken Pox are infectious from 5 days before the appearance of the rash until the lesions have crusted over - usually about 5 days after their appearance.

Please seek medical advice if your child displays symptoms of Chicken Pox.

Ministry of Health Non-attendance Period
Children who have Chicken Pox may not attend school for at least one week from the date of the appearance of the rash.

Thank you.
