Rapid Antigen Testing 

RATs have proved an important COVIDSafe tool to help reduce the number of COVID-19 cases and keep our Glen Education services as safe as possible. Their use remains voluntary for staff and children aged 3 to 5 years but is strongly encouraged.  You can collect a RAT from your child's service.

 

From Monday 23 May 2022, it is recommended that rapid antigen tests are only used by staff and children when symptomatic. Rapid antigen tests are also required to be used for 5 days if a staff member or child is an identified close contact of a confirmed case, and they are attending or working at a sessional kindergarten, long day care, family day care, occasional care and outside school hours service.

Staff and children who are unwell

If staff or children are unwell, they are required to stay at home, unless those symptoms are known to be caused by an underlying health condition or medication.

Children and staff who are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, however mild, should also undertake a RAT or a PCR test and quarantine at home until they receive a negative result. As influenza and colds are becoming more prevalent, even with a negative result, children and staff should avoid ECEC settings until their symptoms resolve and they are well again.

Free influenza vaccination

As influenza is becoming more prevalent, ECEC staff and families are encouraged to get their flu vaccination.

 

Free influenza vaccination is available for children from 6 months to under 5 years of age and other eligible Victorians. Glen Education encourages parents to talk to their GP, local council immunisation service or community health about the influenza vaccine. Flu vaccination can also be received at the same time as a COVID-19 vaccination for people aged 5 and above.
