| Frequently Asked Questions: |
| Q: What if I intend to keep my child at home?
A: Parents may keep their children home from school, but must ensure that they are well supervised and follow the requirements set by the government for public safety. If you are intending to keep your children home, the school will need a letter or email to confirm that. These absences will not count against the student. |
| Q: Will work be provided online for students?
A: We will be doing our best to ensure that students at home receive appropriate schoolwork and guidance for activities to assist their learning. Please be checking Schoolbox regularly for information about what online learning looks for your child. |
| Q: Is the school still open?
A: We are open and intend to stay open as long as possible. If you prefer to keep your children at home, schoolwork will be online. However, we are still open if you would like to continue sending your children to school as normal. |
| Q: Who do I contact if I am having IT problems?
A: If you are having IT problems (Schoolbox/school devices), you can contact our IT department who can help resolve the issues. |
