COVID-19
This page is updated regularly to keep you informed regarding the College’s efforts to minimise any exposure risks within the College community. In the instance of a closure, all families will be notified via SMS and an email with more details will be sent out.
It is vitally important that parents and caregivers inform the school if their child tests positive for COVID-19.
If your child tests positive for COVID-19:
- Then please click on the portal below to report these results to the College
- Notify the College of your child's absence via the absences email
- If they have undertaken a RAT test - notify the Health Department or your child's positive result
Your child then must:
- Self-isolate for a minimum of 7 days
- At Day 7, if symptoms are still present, continue to isolate until symptoms are clear
- If no symptoms after 7 full days (7 x 24 hour periods) of isolation have been completed, they can leave self-isolation. No testing is required.
If your child is a close contact to someone who has tested positive to Covid-19, and is asymptomatic (see baseline settings for schools), they may continue to attend school with the following conditions:
- must do a RAT each morning before attending school
- upload the negative result each day to the Self-Reporting Portal below
- must wear a mask at school for 7 days (students in Year 7 and above only)
