Students Returning On-Site

All students are expected to attend onsite, unless they are formally registered as being home-schooled. Parent preference is not an approved absence reason. Schools should work closely with families that may be concerned about the return to onsite learning with the support of regional staff. The Department has communicated very clearly to schools that schools are not required to provide work for students where parents and carers choose to keep their child at home. 

 

Mask Wearing

We would like to remind everyone that children in Year 3 – Year 6 are required to wear mask indoors at all times. We also recommend children from in Foundation – Year 2 to wear masks indoors, if possible. School staff are also required to wear a face mask while teaching wherever practicable, except where removal of a face mask is necessary for effective communication. Children are not required to wear a mask in the playground but we recommend parents wear masks when coming on the school grounds and to continue maintaining social distancing.

 

Parents/Visitors in school

All parents or visitors must scan the QR code and present their certificate at the office if they wish to enter either of the school buildings. We ask that you refrain from coming into the buildings unless you have a meeting with the teacher or are helping with reading in the morning.
