School Nursing Team
Chat Health
The School Nursing service is very excited to be launching ChatHealth. This is an anonymous text messaging service for parents of 5-19-year-old children. We will be able to offer parents/carers advice and support on many topics such as sleep, behaviour, parenting, healthy eating, bedwetting, emotional health and well-being, managing medical conditions. This service has been well received, and it has already been running in different parts of the UK.
Nasal Flu Immunisation
The School Immunisation Team typically visit the school each November to administer the annual nasal flu immunisations to children in Reception and Years 1-6.
The vaccine is delivered in the form of a nasal spray, NOT via injection.
Information is sent to parents in advance of the immunisation via MCAS. It is recommended that your child is immunised, but the choice is yours and you will be asked for your consent.
