Mask Wearing and RAT Kits
The College appreciates families’ support with the request emailed recently for students in Year 4 and above to wear masks indoors. If students and staff wear masks as much as possible then our school community will benefit from the enhanced protection from COVID-19, influenza and other respiratory infections.
A reminder that students can request a RAT kit from their school Administration office or Reception. Fairview parents are welcome to collect a kit from Reception.
Student Wardrobe Update
Updates have been made to the Student Wardrobe Policy; it can be found in My Aitken and on the Aitken College website. In particular, girls may now wear either tights or short/long navy socks with winter uniform.
