Students begin return to classrooms

From Monday 11 May (Week 3) students will begin a phased return to school.

The phased return will maintain distancing in the classroom while supporting students' education and wellbeing.

Most students will continue learning from home and will only attend school 1 day each week.

Our school will continue to provide detailed information about the return to the classroom throughout the rest of Term 2.

Measures to keep schools clean and safe for all students and staff include:

  • 25% more cleaning time focused on high-touch areas

  • priority deliveries of hygiene supplies including soap and hand sanitiser

  • local school changes to pick up, drop off, lunch and recess times and processes.

Mittagong Public students return for phase 1

Phase 1 return

Last week we began to manage Phase 1 of our students returning to school for 1 day a week of face to face learning with their teachers. 

The children have had a lovely time reconnecting with their friends and teachers on their allocated day.  

This week as per the NSW Department of Education guidelines we are continuing with phase 1 with students attending school on their 1 allocated day of face to face learning with their teacher.  You are encouraged to keep child at home for the remainder of the week wherever possible and continue to learning from home.  Families who need to send their child to school every day may continue to do so, however they will attend a split class with the exception of their allocated day.

We would like to thank our families for your support, co-operation understanding and patience during this COVID-19 time.
