The Dorset Echo is providing a list of those who have pupils and/or staff affected by coronavirus in January and February. The list gives the name of the school and the date that pupils went into the 14-day self-isolation period.
Schools affected are listed, followed by the dates that cases were recorded.
THE festive spirit arrived early at McCarthy and Stone’s Clarendon House Retirement Living development on Tower Road in Branksome Park. It was thanks to a special delivery from Poole pupils within The Education Alliance of Canford Heath (TEACH). Children from Canford Heath Junior School, Canford Heath Infant School, Haymoor Junior School and Ad Astra Infant School, created over 30 Christmas cards containing festive messages. Nicki Beswarick of McCarthy and Stone Southern, said: “This year it was important for us to get creative and find new ways of bringing the community together, despite the challenges we’re all facing. The school pupils have gone above and beyond to produce some incredible Christmas cards, which have truly brought some Yuletide comfort and festive cheer to homeowners at Clarendon House.
