I am sure that we have all heard about and seen on TV and online the ongoing developments with the Covid-19/ Coronavirus.
It is very important that we all take the advice of the HSE to keep ourselves and our loved ones safe and well.
Children are very aware of the Coronavirus too and it is very important that we listen to our children, to help quell any fears that they may have about it.
The school, as advised by the HSE, asks that you teach and remind your child how to:
- wash hands properly and regularly with soap and water – sing the song happy birthday while washing to wash for the right length of time
- cover their mouth and nose with a tissue or sleeve when they cough and sneeze
- put used tissues into a bin and wash their hands
- not to share water bottles, cups, glasses or anything else they put into your mouth
- not to touch their eyes or nose when unwell
- to avoid close contact with anyone who you know has cold or flu symptoms
