COVID update

Whole school assemblies are back

Encouragingly, Public Health have advised that the number of COVID-19 cases in the Tasmanian community are declining. This means that schools have now been given the go ahead to start gradually reintroducing activities – such as whole school assemblies indoors – in a COVID-safe way.

We are excited to welcome back parents and carers at assemblies. All adults must physically distance where practical, and there will be a designated space for parents and carers, separate to students and staff.

All adults will need to wear face masks and students can wear a face mask if they choose.

Our First Sharing Assembly for 2022 will be on Monday 4 July at 2:00pm.

Please contact the office to advise if you are coming so that we can ensure we have appropriate seating available.

Launching into Learning (LIL)

Launching into Learning (LiL) caps have also been removed, and we’re excited to welcome back more families to our LiL sessions. A reminder that adults will need to wear face masks when indoors.

Ventilation

We are continuing to practice many COVID-safe measures including increasing ventilation in learning spaces. This means that windows and doors are being opened to allow for increased air flow. This also means that our classrooms are perhaps not as warm as they might have been in the past. Please ensure that your children come to school wearing a jumper. A plain long-sleeve t-shirt underneath the school t-shirt is also a good idea.

The Ever Changing Situation

Please know that sometimes circumstances may change quickly. We will let families know of any changes, and we appreciate your flexibility if activities are cancelled or modified at short notice.

An important reminder, especially as we move closer to cold and flu season, to please continue to stay at home if unwell.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our school office.
