Covid-19 Updates

The Government's approach to Coronavirus has moved away from stringent restrictions on everyone’s day-to-day lives, towards advising people on how to protect themselves and others, alongside targeted interventions to reduce risk.
The isolation rules have changed and there is now no need for individuals who are fully vaccinated, or those aged under 18 years 6 months, to isolate if they are deemed a close contact. Instead, Track and Trace will contact these individuals and advise a PCR test be taken. Children aged under 5 years old who are identified as close contacts will only be advised to take a PCR test if the positive case is in their own household.
Despite the relaxation in Coronavirus restrictions, it is still imperative that children with symptoms DO NOT ATTEND preschool. If children have any of the following symptoms, however mild, they should isolate with immediate effect and seek a PCR test before returning to preschool.
a high temperature
a new, continuous cough
a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste
