Swine Flu update
To date no Colfe’s pupil has been diagnosed with the virus. However, we would be
grateful if parents could take medical advice if their son or daughter shows any symptoms of fever.
In case of doubt the child should not be sent to school. Meanwhile Colfe’s remains
open. If that situation should change, we will contact all parents by text and email.
