North-east school to remain closed after Norovirus outbreak

Parents with children in a north-east school have been warned to keep their children away for another day following a Norovirus outbreak.

Aberdeenshire Council said a number of staff and pupils at Markethill School and Nursery in Turriff had been suffering from the bug.

Letters have been sent to parents advising them of what to do if their child is affected.

The council said it was offering alternative childcare where possible.
