Covid-19 Update - 23rd November 2020 - 08:00

23rd November 2020
Bubble 2 (Year 1, 2 and 3) continue to self-isolate until Friday 4th December when all children can return unless they have Covid-19 symptoms (high temperature, persistent cough, loss/change of taste/smell).
 
Over the weekend we have been informed that a child in Year 3 has tested positive for Covid-19. This means that there are now 2 children in Year 3 who have tested positive. All children in Year 3 will be classed as close contacts of these children, this is why we have asked the bubble to self-isolate. 
 
If your child develops any Covid-19 symptoms (as listed above) you must seek a test immediately and inform school either on 0191 267 4315 (between 07:30 and 16:00 - Monday-Friday) or via admin@lemingtonriverside.newcastle.sch.uk (at any time). 
 
Parents/carers should remain assured that in the vast majority of cases, Covid-19 is a very mild illness for children.
 
If your child is currently self-isolating and you are entitled to benefit-related free school meals and would like to order a packed lunch for collection from school please call us on 0191 267 4315. Packed lunches can be collected from the Main Reception, at a social distance, between 12pm and 1pm daily. 
 
Thank you.
