06.01.2022 On Tuesday evening the HSC Music concert went ahead despite restrictions. The lights shone brightly and the students felt some sense of normality as they did what they love doing - perform. I am so proud of my Music class and how they have adapted to all the limitations and changes that COVID-19 and NESA have thrown at them. No parents or outsiders of our school community were allowed to be part of the audience, and I sincerely thank those staff members and Year 12 students ...that came along to support the performers. The class of 2020, will be a group I will never forget. You have survived Year 12 in one of the hardest and unpredictable years. All the time invested in practicing and re-working pieces will soon be worth it. Good Luck Year 12. Ms Sainty

03.01.2022 COVID guidelines were updated on 17th August 2020. We have provided the link below for your convenience. Can we remind you that students must not come to school if they are unwell. Even with very mild symptoms. Any students who are exhibiting flu-like symptoms during teaching and learning activities will be isolated and a parent or carer contacted to take the student home.... If a student has been absent due to flu-like illness or develops flu-like symptoms while at school, they are not to return to school until they have a negative COVID-19 test and are symptom-free. As is the case for our staff, the negative COVID-19 test result must be sighted and received by the school before the student returns to school. https://education.nsw.gov.au/covid-19/advice-for-families
