STOMACH VIRUS

We have had a small number of children falling ill to a stomach virus which has caused stomach pains and an upset stomach.  It is apparently very contagious so we ask that you keep your child or children at home until they are fully recovered if they are complaining of stomach cramps, upset stomach (diarrhoea) or are vomiting.  This will help us control the spread of the virus.  So far only a very small number of children have been affected but it is the type of illness we see every now and then that can easy turn into quite a nasty bug that impacts on a lot of children and staff.  Your help in assisting us to minimise the potential impact is very much appreciated.
