The phone call you receive will be from the school number 0191 4552862 or a number with “No Caller ID.” I appreciate that some people will be signing up for times around school pick up time. If you are signing up for a time around this time (between 3-4pm) could you ensure that you are contactable. The parental consultations will give you a chance to update us on how your children are settling into school and our new routines, as well as for us to let you know of their successes and the things they are working on so far.

Important changes

 From Wednesday 4 August, children’s A&E services at South Tyneside District Hospital will change to South Tyneside Urgent Care for Children.

This is a new nurse-led service open from 8am-10pm, 7 days a week.

The expert children’s nursing team at South Tyneside District Hospital will continue treat children from birth up to 16 years for a range of injuries and illnesses which are urgent but not life threatening.

For example:

• Broken bones
• Children who have breathing problems such as asthma
• Common childhood infections in the chest, ears or throat
• Children who are being sick or have diarrhoea
• Cuts and open wounds that need closing
• Minor burns
• Minor bumps or head injuries
• Sprained ankles or strained muscles.

 If you are worried about your child you should call NHS111 for urgent medical advice. In a life threatening emergency call 999.

Please share to help us spread the word.

Paeds Leaflet

Detective Sergeant Drummond is part of the Northumbria Police Prevent Team and he has asked if we can share the following information to parents and guardians as we approach the long summer break.

Please have a look at the enclosed digital leaflet designed specifically for parents, guardians, family and friends. Prevent Parents-Guardians Leaflet.

The Northumbria Prevent Team are using it to encourage the public to access information about Prevent via various pathways including ACT EARLY  https://actearly.uk/ .

ACT EARLY is a website designed for the public, to inform and encourage them to make Prevent referrals if they have worries about their children, family or friends.

Northumbria Police are really keen to encourage parents, guardians etc. to learn about Prevent and to feel empowered to make referrals themselves.
