Dear Parent
We wish to thank all our parents for their patience and understanding with regard to information about the return of all learners to daily attendance. As mentioned in Circulars 10 & 11, we submitted an appeal to the WCED to delay the daily attendance for all learners which is scheduled for Monday, 02 August 2021.
We received permission from the WCED, on 30 July2021, to postpone the daily return of all learners.
We will therefore continue with our rotational school attendance, the Red/Blue Group Programme until further notice. Please check the attached Red/Blue Calendar for guidance.
The Blue Group will attend on Monday 02 August 2021.
ARRIVAL AT SCHOOL
The school will continue with the implementation of all Covid 19 protocols. Please ensure your child is wearing a face mask which cover his/her nose and mouth. Place an additional mask in a plastic bag in your child’s case.
Upon arrival at school, should your child not meet the screening criteria which includes
- a temperature exceeding 37.5 degrees Celsius
- display cough, shortness of breath or sore throat
- have been in contact with a COVID positive person
You will be contacted and your child will be sent home immediately.
Pre-screening must be done by parents, at home, to avoid your child being turned away at the gate.
If your child is ill, PLEASE keep them at home.
Parents are advised to seek medical attention and to keep the school informed as to the outcome.
