Contact Tracing: incursions and excursions

INCURSIONS

Visitors to school grounds must comply with physical distancing and face mask advice and practice good hand hygiene.

There is no requirement to limit the number or type of visitors to school premises, however, the density limit of one person per two square meters should be applied to any spaces being accessed by parent/carer (s) and other visitors.

To support contact tracing, schools must keep a record of all staff, students, and visitors who attend on-site for more than 15 minutes. Schools must record the name, contact details, date, and time of attendance at school, as well as the areas of the school that the person attended. Schools can use existing mechanisms such as visitor sign-in procedures, student attendance records, and staffing rosters to record this information.

EXCURSIONS

There are no restrictions on travel between metropolitan Melbourne and regional Victoria.

There is no limit on group sizes, but excursions need to comply with any specific capacity limits on venues that are being used.

To support contact tracing schools must keep a record of all staff, students, and volunteers who attend excursions, where the excursion is to, and the time spent at the venue. Schools can use existing mechanisms such as excursion forms, transport bookings, attendance records, and staffing rosters to record this information.

Student Clubs & Activities

Below is a copy of the student clubs and activities that are available to students across the College. Please check this document to find out when and where the clubs and activities will be. 

Involvement in student clubs and activities is an example of how students can make constructive use of their time. Constructive use of time is one of the external developmental assets which identifies the importance of students taking on opportunities to develop new skills and interests with other students and adults.

More information on the developmental assets framework is available here.
