Dear Parent/Guardian,
You will be aware, I am sure, of the latest update from the UK government in relation to Coronavirus. The country is moving in to the delay phase, which, for us in schools in Wales means the following at present (in line with government and Carmarthenshire Local Authority advice):
- schools are to remain open;
- no international school trips;
- no larger – scale gatherings, such as parents’ evenings, concerts;
- those with a new, continuous cough and/or a high temperature should self – isolate for 7 days.
If your child presents with a new, continuous cough and/or a high temperature, please could you keep him/her at home for 7 days, informing us of the reason for absence.
Please find attached the latest links to Welsh Government advice:

Please be assured that we are following, very closely, all advice from relevant bodies.
