22.01.2022 NEW GUIDELINES FOR SOCIAL DISTANCING AT SCHOOL New guidelines have come into place regarding distancing of students across scholastic year/stages. Students need to be kept separate by year/stage in the playground and canteen area, this means that we need to close the Canteen at lunch and recess time to avoid students from different stages congregating. From Wednesday 26th August both recess and lunch orders need to be placed at the canteen before 8.55am or online by 9.30am v...ia Flexischool.com.au app. There will be no canteen access by any student at any other time throughout the day. All visitors to the front office, including parents & carers MUST sign an External Visitors to School Site form. Any staff or student with cold like/flu symptoms MUST stay home. If you send your child to school with any of these symptoms you will be contacted to pick your child up. You are encouraged to get your child tested and provide the school with the result prior to returning to school. Please Note: your child cannot return to school without a negative Covid Test Result. A copy of text message is all that is required. Copy of screen shot will suffice. New guidelines are to be enforced for approx. 6 weeks, then they will be reviewed. See more
