Guest MaryEMac Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 Playgroup finished for the year today but it sort of fizzled out. Swine flu reached the primary school on Tuesday and a lot of people panicked. In the early hours of wednesday morning I came down with a d and v bug. So at playgroup the chair and my deputy notified the parents that swine flu was in school and that I was off sick. I think people thought that I might have swine flu, so most of the children went home. For the rest of the week there were only 4 children at each session. Therefore there was no end of term celebration and I was stuck at home not even having the chance to say goodbye to the 2 leavers who stayed till the end. I really feel cheated. Hope everyone else has a better end of term than I did. Mary Quote

Guest Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 Poor you. Hope you're feeling better now. The swine flu thing is causing quite a lot of panic. We had a suspected case and parents kept their children away. It's a shame you missed out on the end of term fun - you'll have to party twice as hard next year to make up for it!! Quote

Guest MaryEMac Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Thanks all for your comments. I am feeling loads better and almost back to eating normally. All staff are in tomorrow morning to do paperwork for September and tidy up and the headteacher next door has invited me round to school for a cuppa, so it's not all bad. Mary Quote
Guest Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Glad you're feeling better. Good luck clearing up and doing admin jobs!!! Enjoy the summer break. xxx Quote
