We will be in contact with the school community again on Monday 30 March 2020 in regard to the resumption of school operations.
The department has set up educational provisions to help students learn at home. All students, whether they are on or off campus, will continue to learn and will be provided with the same tasks to complete.
The safety and wellbeing of our students is of paramount importance to us all times. As such we will continue to work closely with NSW Health to ensure that all necessary health advice is adhered to.
