Chickenpox

Aaron Richards —

We have been advised that children in our community have caught chickenpox.

Chickenpox is a highly contagious disease that can have long-lasting and harmful effects on some people. Please look out for symptoms and keep your children home if they have chicken pox. Children should isolate at home until the blisters have crusted over (5-7 days).
