Hollinswood Primary School and Nursery

Dear Parents and Carers,

We would like to make you aware of a concern that has been reported to us by parents.

On two separate occasions, children in the local area were approached by unknown adult males who addressed them by name. The reports relate to different individuals and separate incidents.

The police have been informed. At present, there is no evidence that the incidents are connected or that there is any immediate risk to our pupils. There may be an innocent explanation for what has been reported.

However, we feel it is important to keep families informed and to encourage appropriate vigilance. Please remind your child about basic personal safety, including not going anywhere with someone they do not know, and telling a trusted adult if they are approached unexpectedly or made to feel uncomfortable.

If your child experiences anything concerning, please report it to the police and inform the school so that we can monitor any further incidents.

We will continue to liaise with the police and will share any further information if necessary.

Thank you for your support in helping to keep our children safe.
