EMC COVID Update

Latest DET advice

Free RATs are available through schools for use by all students and staff for Term 1, 2022 although this will continue to be monitored and may end early if recommended by health advice. Your student will receive their next pack of RATs next week. 

 

Testing will be conducted at home, and students and staff must report any positive result. There is no requirement to report a negative result.

 

Children can attend school as long as they are well and not in quarantine. While testing is recommended, they do not need to have a negative rapid antigen test to attend school.

If students have had COVID, they do not need a negative RAT to come back to school after their 7 day isolation period ends.
