How can I get a sick note?

I've been on placement for the past few weeks (I'm a trainee teacher) and inevitably, I've gotten sick. I called in sick today to my part-time job (sports direct) and they said to bring a sick note the next time I work. But I'm working tomorrow, and because it's the weekend, the Doctor's is closed. Furthermore, I didn't feel any point in going to the Doctor's for something that is probably a 24 hour sickness bug. I cannot get to the Doctors next week either as my Doctors is 50 miles away as I live away from home and my work placement hours are 8-6. What do I do? Will I be fired from my part-time job?

    They should know that you cannot get a sick note for less than 7 days, they are just being stupid. go into work and tell them why you cannot get one. No doubt your Manager is a 20 something with no idea of how it works.
