NSW Government logo

Dear parents and carers,

I would like to confirm with you that a member of our school community has tested positive for COVID-19.  NSW Health have promptly assessed the situation and advised that there is no need to cease school operations.

NSW Department of Education and NSW Health have been working closely to ensure the health and safety of all students and staff is maintained. This work has included identifying contacts of the confirmed case and communicating directly with them regarding their requirement to self-isolate.

I would like to reassure you that the school will take action in accordance with NSW Health advice on a confirmed case of COVID-19 where there has been an impact on our school.  

In this case there is no additional action required by the school.

NSW Health reminds anyone who has been unwell or if you develop any symptoms such as a fever, cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, runny nose, loss of smell/taste, muscle/joint pains, diarrhoea, nausea/vomiting or extreme tiredness to be tested at one of the COVID-19 testing clinics.

Further information on COVID-19 is available on the NSW Government website.
