Coronavirus (Covid-19) School Update

30/3/2020

 
Dear Parents/Guardians,​

As you are aware, families are now encouraged to keep their children at home if they have the capacity to do so. 
Education support settings are unique environments, that present a more complex environment for our students and staff in regard to the current pandemic threat. 

​Students who require close proximity with staff and those who have a cognitive or communication impairment that makes it more difficult for students to regulate their behavior are at greater risk of acquiring and/or transmitting the virus. This includes students who require toileting, feeding, dressing and manual handling and those who are unable to regulate social distancing and behavior. 

The Department of Education has been in close consultation with the Chief Health Officer throughout. Given the spread of COVID-19, and the vulnerability of our education support students, the decision has been made that our education support students should remain at home.

We recognise that every student has a unique situation and we will be working with families on the individual case management of your child with a view to safely supporting our students at home. Please contact us if you require our help in supporting your student at home.

We know our school is different to most schools, and our students have different educational needs. This undoubtedly will be one of the biggest challenges we face. Your child's education will continue, but it will look different. No matter what the situation, we will be staying connected with all our students. 

I understand this is unsettling news but I want to assure you that the safety of all students and staff is our number one priority. 

One of the best aspects of our school is our ability to look after one another. I am here for every one of you and your children, as are all the staff. These are unprecedented times and I know we will pull together and get through this. 

Kind regards,
Jacquie Gellel
