Dear Parents and Carers

In line with the announcements from NSW Premier this morning, I have received the following advice from the NSW Department of Education.

For the first week of Term 3, students in Greater Sydney – that is, those LGAs currently affected by NSW Health stay-at-home orders and including Greater Sydney, the Blue Mountains, Central Coast, Wollongong and Shellharbour – will be learning from home. This will stay in place until Friday 16 July.
 
 Schools will remain open for the students and families who need it, although parents will be encouraged to keep their children at home. There will only be minimal staff supervision and schools will provide one unit of work for students, whether they are learning from home or in the classroom. For those on site, all staff in all school settings and students from year 7 upwards will be required to wear masks. This is consistent with current requirements for masks to be worn in office and workplace settings and on transport services across Greater Sydney. 

Principals will be receiving further advice with more details later today and I will update the community with all relevant information as soon as I receive it.

I hope you and your families are staying safe and well.

Kind regards,

Lisa Lupton

Principal

 On Monday’s School Development Day, all professional learning will need to be provided online. Staff who must attend school sites on this day will be required to wear masks indoors and maintain appropriate physical distancing.
