Dear Parents / Guardians,
We are asking you all to be extra vigilant when sending your daughter to school. If your daughter is in anyway symptomatic (even a runny nose or head cold) we would kindly ask you to keep them home and contact your GP. Loreto Foxrock are doing our best to keep our school community safe and your help from home would be much appreciated.
The official HSE Advice re close contacts in households is the following;
Anyone who is are deemed household close contacts, are fully vaccinated and showing no symptoms,
should now restrict their movements until they have 3 negative antigen test results within 5
days. If you are in this situation, you should restrict your movements and await contact from
HSE.
Close contacts will receive a text from HSE directing them to a website to upload their contact
details. They will then receive another text re the antigen tests.
Antigen tests will arrive by normal post and should be taken in this order:
• First test on the day you receive your tests
• Second test two days after your first test
• Third test two days after your second test
If you are un vaccinated you must follow the full isolation guidelines.
If there is any Covid in your household or symptoms of Covid please contact me on jbrock@loretofocrock.ie and i will help you in any way possible and go through the school procedures in relation to return to school.
Work for absent students will be posted to Microsoft Teams . Please make contact with your year head to facilitate this.
Thank you to all our families for your help and co operation.
