St John's School Newsletter Term 3 Week 3 St John's is a Child Safe School where all children are respected and are protected from harm. Principal's Message Dear Families, Thank goodness we are coming back to school tomorrow, it will be great to have everyone here again. Thank you for your patience during this last week, fingers crossed that this is the last lockdown. Return to school tomorrow - Tomorrow, all students will need to return their ipad, ipad charger, Stepping Stones maths books (Foundation – Year 4), and all other learning materials. It is important that these materials are returned so the students can continue their learning. School restrictions - Now that we are open again, we need to be vigilant about following these safety precautions- · No parents will be allowed on site. If you need to speak with a staff member, please phone the school or send an email. · Parents/Carer’s must wear masks and practise social distancing when dropping off and collecting their child - please wait in or near your car for your child at the end of the school day. · Sick children must not attend school, if they have any COVID like symptoms, they will need a COVID test before returning to school. A copy of the negative result will need to be emailed to myself, principal@sjeuroa.catholic.edu.au before your child can return to school. · At this stage,there will be no school assemblies for the next couple of weeks. Lunch Orders - There will be no lunch orders tomorrow, unfortunately Fare Enough won’t be able to fill our orders due the lifting of the lockdown today. Lunch orders will be available next week. Thanks again everyone for your continued support, all of the staff here at St John’s are grateful.
