There is at present an increase in community transmission of COVID-19 in Victoria.
Our local schools and areas have had a large increase in staff and families who have been infected.
This is a reminder of 3 key steps schools are asked to take to contribute to reducing transmission.
Schools should:
We have COVID tests and masks at the office, free of charge if anyone needs them.
We encourage all families and members of the community to use them if needed.
No one wants to be sick at this time of year.
