KPS COVID Update 2022

KPS COVID-19 UPDATE 

Dear Parents and Carers,

Based on advice from the Victorian Chief Health Officer and the Department of Education & Training, there has been some changes made on how cases of COVID-19 and contacts of cases are managed in schools.

Rapid Antigen Tests (RAT)

RAT kits have been distributed to all students.   
Further RAT kits will be distributed by the school as soon as they are received.

Any COVID-19 positive results are to be reported to the school as soon as possible. 

Inform the school office on 9798 4764

Communication to families

If a student is reported to the school as positive, we will contact the families of the impacted home group requesting parents/carers be vigilant for symptoms of COVID-19 with their students.  This communication will be sent via Sentral parent portal.

Please make sure that your recorded contact details are up to date.

Vaccination

All children 5 years and up are now eligible for COVID-19 vaccination.  We encourage all students to be vaccinated and the earliest possible opportunity.

Other preventative measures

KPS has implemented air purifiers and a ventilation plan to minimise the risk of transmission in all indoor learning spaces.

If you have any further concerns, please call the school on 03 9798 4764.
