We’ve had a very eventful first week back at school.

After the strong winds and subsequent damage to the school site, we are pleased to share that work was completed to rectify these areas and has ensured safety for the school community.

After a Hertfordshire County Council (HCC) Headteacher briefing this morning regarding ‘Living with COVID-19’, I can confirm that currently the DfE advice that was shared via email yesterday is supported by HCC:

‘Adults and children who test positive will continue to be advised to stay at home and avoid contact with other people for at least 5 full days, and then continue to follow the guidance until they have received 2 negative test results on consecutive days.’

Therefore, please continue to share COVID-19 information with the school office via telephone (01763 271717) or email (admin@millfield.herts.sch.uk).

COVID-19 case numbers at Millfield are currently low and as a result, we are pleased to share that we are able to start transitioning from our Outbreak Plan. This process will take place over the coming 2 weeks and will include a range of changes for staff and children e.g. returning to assemblies in the hall, eating lunch in the hall and Key Stage break times. If there is any significant change to COVID-19 case numbers at Millfield, this information will be shared promptly.
