NEWS RELEASE CHILDCARE HUBS IN POWYS
Tue 24 Mar 2020For Immediate Release
Emergency childcare hubs
Emergency childcare hubs will be operating from 13 locations across the county from this Friday (27 March), Powys County Council has said.
School sites in the county will remain open until Thursday, March 26 but only for children of critical workers and the most vulnerable children.
The hubs, which will provide childcare to support critical emergency workers, NHS staff and social care workers as well as the county’s most vulnerable children, will also operate at weekends. The hubs will operate from 8am to 6pm.
To access provision from Friday, March 27 to Friday, April 3, critical workers will need to register their child at their nearest emergency childcare hub by filling in an online form by 9pm on Wednesday, March 25.
As part of the arrangements, meals will be provided to children three times a day and transport will be arranged for children to get to the hubs and back home.
Cllr Phyl Davies, Cabinet Member for Education and Property, said: “The advice to parents is clear – if your children can stay safely in their home, they should.
“However, critical workers will still need to have safe care arrangements for their children. These emergency childcare hubs will be providing a vital service to support critical workers and our most vulnerable children.
“Our school sites will remain open up until Thursday as emergency childcare facilities but then they will close and these hubs will become operational from Friday onwards.
“I want to thank all professionals at our schools for their commitment during this extremely difficult period.”

20/03/20 URGENT LETTER RE CHILDCARE FOR KEY WORKERS CHILDREN
Fri 20 Mar 2020Friday 20th March 2020
Dear Parents/carers
As you are aware the Welsh Government have closed all schools to the majority of pupils with effect from today.
Parents whose work is critical to the COVID-19 response have been identified as key workers, and childcare will be provided for these children from Monday 23rd March. Following guidelines, a household with only one key worker has been included, however, if anyone else in the household can safely care for the child this is what is strongly advised.
As part of the national effort to combat the disease, our school will provide this care for those pupils next Monday and Tuesday for school hours only. If you are already self-isolating you need to complete your 14 days before any return to school. This includes children who attend Pips Bach whose parents are key workers.
Powys County Council will be organising sites to continue the childcare from Wednesday. The exact centres are currently being negotiated. They will issue a list of the sites that will be open for this purpose as soon as possible, and school will let relevant parents know.
However to safeguard all pupils and staff and to limit the potential spread of the virus, every child who can safely be cared for at home should be.
It is vital that Government advice is followed by all parents, particularly that if a member of your household display symptoms the whole household should self-isolate for 14 days. School will also continue to send home immediately any child that displays a persistent cough or a temperature.
Yours sincerely
K Jenkins
