PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

Dear parents and carers,

I hope that you took the time over the school holiday break to connect with family and friends.

This communication is an update for you on some changes to the COVID-19 situation in the Northern Territory as it relates to Term 3 in our schools.

To ensure that we maintain a safe learning environment in our school, we ask that you all continue to practice and promote good hygiene and respect the guidelines that we have set in place including visitors to schools – please see attached or refer to this information online.

If your child is unwell they must remain at home and parents/carers should notify the school.

You are asked to notify the school if your child has been directed by the Northern Territory Government to self-quarantine at home or enter mandatory quarantine at a government facility. The school will provide the student with learning from home materials to ensure that they can continue to learn during this period.

Students who have been required to quarantine, will need to provide the school with a letter of clearance from the Northern Territory Government, prior to their return to face to face learning.

This is about schools minimising the risk of the spread of the virus and giving reassurance to other students, staff and the community, that it is safe for students who have been quarantined to return.

Please note that all school staff who have been required to undertake quarantine, will also provide the same clearance letter before they return to school.

If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact the school.

Principal
