COVID-19 parent letter - 18 November 2020

/

Dear parent/caregiver,

Today the Premier announced a 6 day statewide lockdown starting at midnight tonight (Wednesday 18 November) through to midnight Tuesday 24 November.

Only the children of essential workers and vulnerable children will be able to attend school or preschool / child care.

A skeleton staff will provide supervision but not a learning program for the remainder of this week. If your child needs to attend, we will be here for them.

All students have been asked to take home school laptops/devices, books and anything they need to continue their learning from home.

More information on learning programs will be provided early next week, as we work our way through the new COVID-19 Directions.

All South Australians are making sacrifices to ensure our community remains as safe as possible. We appreciate that this is a significant undertaking for you and your family.  Your child’s teacher, our support staff and I are here to support you where we can.

 

Regards,

Principal/Preschool Director

Dear Families

As promised, further clarity regarding the status of the school.

  1. Thursday & Friday are confirmed as School Closure Days – there will be a very skeleton staff at the school for the children of essential Workers.

  2. Monday & Tuesday are designated as Student Free Days – staff will be working from home on these days to prepare once again for Learning at Home.

 Hopefully all students have returned home with their necessary learning materials.

 All buses will now run Thursday and Friday this week.

 I will forward further COVID-19 Updates as any changes occur through Daymap, Facebook, SMS, School Stream app and the school website.

Stay Safe,

Amanda O’Shea
