Community News: Pumpkin Patch SEND Session - 05 Sep 2025
Flu Consent Form - Action RequiredThe annual school aged Flu vaccination programme this year, is being offered to all children in Years Reception to Year 11. Flu can be a very unpleasant illness for children and sometimes causes serious complications. Children can catch and spread flu easily so vaccinating them also protects others who are vulnerable e.g. babies and older people.
This is particularly important as COVID-19 continues to circulate and people at risk of flu are also vulnerable to the complications of COVID-19.
Whether you wish for your child to have their Flu vaccine or you do not, please complete the form at least one full school day before the session. After this date you will find the online system will not work. The system will reopen the day after the school session to enable a form to be registered and a community clinic appointment be booked.
For most children, the Nasal Flu vaccination is painless and given by a quick and simple spray up the nose. In somemedical circumstances it is necessary to administer the Flu vaccine by intramuscular injection instead of the nasalspray, but this will always be discussed with parents/carers beforehand.
