WELCOME BACK IN THIS BRAVE YEAR OF '22
I hope that during the Christmas break you were able to all catch up with family and friends and you were also able to find some time to rest and relax after a second tumultuous and unprecedented year.
Unfortunately, COVID is still with us and it continues to have an impact on how schools operate. However, as the Victorian Government has stated, remote learning is now hopefully a thing of the past and the absolute final resort, with face-to-face teaching being one of the main priorities. Of course, the second important priority is the health and wellbeing of all in the Academy community. This takes many forms from Safe COVID practices to travel, Mentor Groups, Mobile phone use, Student Wellness plans - even Hot Weather & Uniform protocols. Below are updates, reminders or new information on things that build a safe, cooperative and dynamic school environment.

inBrief
Please review/read the following headline information on our iNFORMATION page in detail, particularly the Colleges COVID protocols, in line with advice from the Victorian Government, DHS and MACs.
COVID: 3Vs Ventilation, Vaccination & Vital COVIDSafe steps
At the Academy we are committed to ensuring a safe environment for our community with a full suite of COVID Safe measures to protect students and staff and minimise disruption to learning. However, parents are asked to remember that this is a fluid situation and can change very quickly. Depending on circumstances, it may mean some timetable changes, contingency plans.
