Pupil Free Days and COVID-19 Guidelines

Please remember that 9th September and 12th September are pupil free days for St Paul Lutheran School. The Monday is aimed at creating a four-day circuit-breaker with a day in addition to our usual single day.

With our current guidelines, we have been able to avoid class closures completely so far this term, and the COVID cases that are beginning to be reported in various classes in the past week will have an opportunity to be contained to only a few with this circuit-breaker, leading into our preparations for school concert. I am thankful to families for their patience and flexibility. It is our hope that being able to plan ahead for these days has been useful.

I will update our COVID guidelines in the October School holidays, with a view to some additional opportunities for gathering. I ask parents to please watch their email in the coming days for a very short survey aimed at gathering feedback about COVID-19 risk mitigation strategies such as masks, gatherings and circuit-breakers.

Reception Mid-Year Entry from 2023

If you would like to enrol for mid-year Reception entry, whether or not you are already enrolled for the beginning of 2024, please contact our Registrar, Monique Tabuena: mtabuena@stpaulba.sa.edu.au. You are also able to make a time to speak with me to chat about what this means for your child before you make a decision. Every child is different, every family situation is different, and we are here to support you all.
