24.01.2022 Gastro is a highly infectious condition, so washing your hands thoroughly with soap and water for 20 seconds is an important way to reduce your risk. When it c...omes to gastro, it's very important to keep unwell children at home. To stop gastro germs spreading further, children should not return to childcare or school until at least 24-48 hours after symptoms have ceased. See more

06.01.2022 Hello Parents please see this important update regarding the current Covid-19 situation in Greater Brisbane and school processes that apply to Kelso State School.

05.01.2022 Dear parents .... should your primary school aged child/ren be using or accessing Tik Tok, Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram etc? Well it can be said that primary school aged students are either not old, or mature, enough to be accessing these social media platforms. Regardless of the above nothing beats active parental supervision of children whenever they are using electronic devices and or accessing the internet. Many of the issues that arise in schools are because of the infl...uences students are exposed to through these social media platforms. Please feel free to review the article below or if you would like more information please contact me at school. Together let’s work to ensure that our kids have healthy, safe, and supportive environments in which they learn, grow and thrive. https://www.google.com.au//b6355546-ace0-453b-a04a-8a9c1c5
