Smile Squad Six Month Fluoride Varnish Visit

The Banyule Community Health Smile Squad team are heading back to our school in Term 1 to complete six-monthly fluoride varnish applications for those students who have provided consent. Fluoride varnish applications help make sure students have the best chance of preventing tooth decay, so we’re excited Smile Squad are coming back. 

 

Consent for this fluoride varnish application was provided when students’ initial consent forms were returned. However, if anyone has changed their mind and do not wish to receive a fluoride varnish application, they can contact Banyule Community Health directly to let them know. Please contact the Smile Squad team via: 9450 2000.

COVID- 19

There is at present an increase in community transmission of COVID-19 in Victoria. 

You can help us keep our school as safe as possible by taking 2 important steps: 

  1. Ensure your COVID-19 vaccinations are up to date. Information on how and where to get vaccinated is available on the Get vaccinated webpage. 
  2. If your child shows symptoms of COVID-19, please ensure they stay home and get tested. The easiest way to test is to use a rapid antigen test (RAT).
  3. Free RATs are still available from the school where you can collect a pack of 5 RATs and an extra pack for each person in your household.  

If your child has symptoms but tests negative, please ensure they stay home until they no longer have symptoms.  If the RAT test result is positive, please ensure they say home for at least 5 days and until there are no more symptoms.
