25.01.2022 In the latest update from the Victorian Department of Education, we are being ‘strongly encouraged’ to implement temperature screening at all our kindergartens.... The Department has advised that as fever is a common symptom of COVID-19, temperature screening is one intervention that can help identify the presence of illness. Testing will help ensure those who are unwell remain at home, reducing the risk of transmission. Temperature screening will take place each morning, as of Monday 13th of July during the drop off/sign in process. Any child found to have a temperature 37.5 degrees or above will need to stay at home. We will continue to share updates and changes as they come through.

24.01.2022 The Victorian Government are providing funding for 4 Year old Kindergarten next year which allows children enrolled in a 4 year old program to attend for free. ...There will be no Term fees charged for children attending a 4 Year old KinderLink kindergarten class. There will also be funding provided for the 3 Year old program, reducing the cost of children attending 3 Year old kindergarten. KinderLink will be in touch with our 2021 3 Year old families to advise what fees will be.

23.01.2022 As you are all probably aware by now, Daniel Andrews announced over the weekend that as of 11:59pm Wednesday night it will be mandatory for people over the age of 12 to wear face coverings in the Melbourne region and Mitchell Shire which includes us here in the Yarra Ranges. In line with the above, the Department of Education and KinderLink will require any adult entering a KinderLink kindergarten to be wearing a face mask. Our KinderLink teaching staff will be wearing masks ...during drop off, pick up and temperature screening in the mornings. Any adult that is unable to wear a mask due to medical reasons will be asked to provide a medical certificate. To try keep our staff and KinderLink families safe and well, any adult that refuses to comply with the new policy will not be able to proceed beyond the kindergarten gates. Please ensure that any adult (parent, carer, grandparent etc.) who may be at drop off or pick up is aware of this policy. Masks do not have to be medical grade, but they must cover the mouth, nose and be close fitting. There are other options to wearing a mask, if you do not have one - scarf, bandana, hand made mask or face shield. For more information on the government requirements regarding mask use please refer to https://www.dhhs.vic.gov.au/face-masks-covid-19 We appreciate your understanding and cooperation during these crazy times.
