PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE

Dear Parents, 

As educators and parents, we share the responsibilty to support our children.

It is critical that we all stay calm and follow good hygiene practices but it is also important that we reassure our children that they are not in danger and we are all here to support them. 

As I have previously advised the Coronavirus situation is changing on a daily, or even hourly, basis. 

Please be reassured that as soon as we receive any information we will forward it immediately to families.

I wanted to update you on a number of actions that are being undertaken to support best health and hygiene practices in our school. These actions will assist in limiting the spread of germs including viruses in our school communities.

  • Enhanced cleaning which will take place in all schools from 18 March 2020.
  • The Department will continue to be in regular contact with all schools to understand current levels of supplies of soap and hygiene products.  
  • All schools will receive additional provisions of soap and hygiene supplies, such as hand sanitizer.

Further actions we can take to help manage the spread of the virus include: 

1. Washing your hands regularly and thoroughly

2. Sneezing into your elbow or a tissue, disposing of the tissue straight away and then washing your hands

3. Staying home if you are unwell

Teachers are preparing packages of work for students should schools be closed in the future.

I would like to thank our school community for supporting our students and staff during this time. There are 1000 families in our school and we are constantly grateful for the understanding and trust you have in our school leaders.

Thank you.
