COVID and illness information

illness information poster

Any student or staff member who is unwell and/or displays symptoms of COVID-19 will be asked to go home and stay there until they complete a RAT or PCR test and are free of symptoms.

If symptoms continue, they should stay at home and take another RAT in 24 hours or have a PCR test.

If the second RAT or initial PCR test result is negative, the student or staff member can return to school if they are free of symptoms.

In NSW, positive COVID-19 cases are provided a Medical Clearance Notice after 7 days and allowed to leave self-isolation as long as they do not have COVID-19 symptoms.

Students will receive another batch of RAT test to use if they are displaying symptoms. If your child presents to our school office with flu-like/COVID-like symptoms, parents will be contacted to take them home.

Thank you for your ongoing support with keeping our school community safe,

Ms Monk
