Dear Parents ,
We have had a confirmed case of Whooping Cough in the Langley room . The child concerned was however fully immunised. Please watch your child very carefully for symptoms of this disease. It may start with a runny nose or sneezing and then develop into coughing bouts which may have a "whooping' sound. It is particularly serious in children under 2. If your child displays any of these symptoms please keep them at home and have them checked by a doctor. We have copies of information about the disease available from your child's teacher.
