What Our Children Say About Our School

January 2021

Following the Government announcement, Halling Primary School will be closed for the first couple of weeks in January. As soon as the government have reviewed the closure, we will be in contact with more information. Following the letter that was sent last Wednesday, a more detailed plan for school closure has been sent to all parents (please see the newsletters to the right). If you feel that you meet the criteria for Key Workers, please email office@halling.medway.sch.uk and the dates that you need to book so that we can compile a register. Please can I remind you all that Monday 4th January is an INSET day and therefore, if your child meets the criteria of a Key Worker or vulnerable pupil, they will return on Tuesday 5th January.

Thank you for your continued support during these unprecedented times.

CORONAVIRUS INFORMATION

The Government is continuing to release updates and information about the Coronavirus.
We have created a 'What should I do if...?' document to aid parents in identifying when children should be in school and when they should stay at home. Over time, we would like to add to this document so that we have a comprehensive guide to support all members of our learning community; please contact us with any queries/ questions you would like to add. In addition, we will be amending in line with government guidelines as and when they change.

Please Remember...

You must ONLY enter the school if you do not display any of the symptoms of Covid19:

• A high temperature – you feel hot to touch on your chest or back
• A new, continuous cough – coughing either a lot more than an hour or 3 or more coughing episodes in 24 hours
• A loss or change to your sense of taste and/or smell

If you have any of the symptoms above, please do NOT enter the building and book a Covi19 test.

If you live with somebody who displays the symptoms/ has tested positive, you must self-isolate for 10 days. You do not need to book a test unless you develop symptoms.

ALL visitors (unless exempt for medical reasons) are required to wear masks and give their details in line with NHS Test and Trace.

For any further information or to book a test, please visit the website:

We thank you in advance for your support in keeping everyone in our learning community safe.
