COVID-19 Reminder

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

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). 

Free RATs are available from your local council where you can collect two packs of 5 RATs and an extra two packs for each person in your household. People with disability and their carers can get four packs of five RATs. You are not required to have a Medicare card and you can collect RATs as many times as you need. You can also buy RATs at supermarkets, pharmacies and other retailers.

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 five days and until there are no more symptoms.

Thank you for your support – these steps will help us all stay well.
