Measles advice
Over the summer months, with people being out and about more, Knowsley’s Public Health team are issuing advice and guidance around measles, which is extremely infectious.
Symptoms include high fever, sore, red and watery eyes, coughing, aching and feeling generally unwell and a blotchy red / brown rash.
You can help by ensuring your children receive two MMR vaccines on time (one at the age of one and the other at aged 3 years and 4 months). If your children have missed these vaccines, it’s not too late, so contact your GP to make an appointment to ensure your children are up-to-date.
Teenagers and young adults should also be fully vaccinated before traveling or attending festivals and other summer events.
If you have symptoms of measles, stay at home and phone your GP or NHS 111 for advice.

Start of Term Changes
From Monday 4th January our school will only be open to the children of key workers and vulnerable children in all classes. Please click here for the definition of these groups. All other children will access learning remotely via (TEAM’s) from Tuesday 5th January. We are taking this step due to the school not having sufficient staff to supervise and safeguard the children in our care. All routines of staggered start/finish times remain for those vulnerable or key worker children who can attend. I apologise for the inconvenience this may cause you, our aim is always to ensure the safety and wellbeing of the staff and children at our school. We will update you as the situation develops.’
Take care and stay safe
