COVID19 update

NSW Health and the Department of Education continue to stress to the community the importance of keeping children at home, unless it is absolutely essential to send them to school. The school remains open as at Friday 6 August 2021.

In order for the school to comply with the Public Health Order there will be minimal staff at school. All children will complete the same work (at school or remotely). Students attending school will be supervised by a teacher.

Due to the exponential increase in cases it is important to keep children at home. This will contribute to keeping our staff, children and families safe. It is a requirement of the school that all visitors comply with the following public health orders:

• wear a mask when dropping-off or picking-up your child at all times
• maintain social distancing (1.5sqm) at all times
• check-in via QR code before entering premises
• keep your child home if they show any cold or flu-like symptoms
• avoid coming to the office. If you need to speak with one of our staff please make an appointment.

We continue to offer remote learning through the Edumate platform via the Parent Portal on the BMSS website homepage. Early childhood education services continue to operate. Thanks to all who have been contributing to the safety of everyone in our community by following government health requirements. Our priority is to ensure we can continue to support the children and our community at this time. Please use our 24/7 feedback channel at any time.

Thank you for your support.

Martin Buckmaster, School Principal
