This year, all the children at Ivington CE Primary and Pre-school from Year R to Year 6 will be offered a flu vaccine, given as a simple squirt up the nose. It is painless, quick and side effects are uncommon and generally mild.
By having the flu vaccination, children are less likely to pass the virus on to friends and family, especially those who may be at greater risk from flu, such as infants, elderly people or friends or relatives with a serious health condition.
The Nasal Flu Vaccination is due to take place in school on Friday 27th November 2020.
It is important that you return the Consent Form to school, even if you do not want your child to have the vaccine.
