We have had a number of families impacted by illness recently, and we understand how challenging this can be. To help keep our students, staff, and families well, we kindly remind parents and carers to keep children at home if they are showing any cold or flu-like symptoms.

This includes coughing, sneezing, fever, sore throat, or general unwellness. Staying home when sick helps prevent the spread of illness and supports the wellbeing of everyone in our school community.

If your child becomes unwell during the school day, we will contact you to arrange for them to be collected. We appreciate your support in following this important health guideline.

Let’s continue working together to keep Longford Primary a safe and healthy place for learning.
