COVID-19 Update (as at 20 November 2020)

Letter to students and parents/caregivers

The Premier announced today that schools and preschools will reopen to all students on Monday 23 November. As a result, our school will be open and operating as normal. We will not be offering an alternative home-based learning program.

As the Chief Public Health Officer stated - just because the hard lockdown is being lifted, it does not mean that the risks associated with COVID-19 have passed. As a result, we will minimise the number of people coming and going from our site. Wherever possible, please maintain the appropriate physical distance from other adults.

More information on excursions, events, sporting activities and use of masks will be available soon.

Thank you very much for your support over the last couple of days. We look forward to having you/your child back at the College on Monday.

Regards

Eva Kannis-Torry
Principal
