Junior Campus Notices - Week 2, Term 2

KingsWay School —

Please read the following important weekly notices for the Junior Campus.

Infection Control

Several students have recently succumbed to a vomiting/gastro bug. If your child has a tummy bug (not food poisoning), they remain contagious for up to 2 weeks after the last episode of vomiting and/or diarrhea.

It is school policy to keep a child off school for at least 48hrs after the last episode of vomiting/diarrhea.

Children suffering from fevers and flu-like symptoms should remain at home at least 24hrs after the last fever.

Gastro, cold and flu bugs are thought to be able to survive on surfaces from 1 day to over a week, so it is a good idea to disinfect any surfaces that a sick child may have contaminated – benches, door handles, phones and keyboards.

Ensure your child has plenty of rest and fluid.

This is a good opportunity for everyone to remind their children about the importance of never sharing food or drink and careful hand washing/drying, especially before you eat and after a bathroom visit.

Please be mindful of other students and teachers when assessing the right time for your child to return to school after an infectious illness.

Let’s have a healthy Winter!
