COVID-19

Kindlehill has at its heart the safety and well being of children. There are a range of strategies in place consistent with the requirements of the Public Health order and recommendations made by AISNSW and Service NSW.

Below is key information relating to the surveillance RAHT’s and guidance about positive results.

For the first few weeks of term 1 Staff and Students in schools are recommended by Service NSW and AISNSW to complete twice weekly Rapid Antigen Home Tests (RAHT).

Testing Positive

If a staff member or student tests positive they are required to register the result with Service NSW via the website or the App and must notify the school at erica@kindlehill.nsw.edu.au or on (02) 4757 4402 as soon as is possible.

A student who tests positive for Covid-19 must complete a 7-day isolation. They can return to school after the 7 days as long as they do not have symptoms. If they have symptoms they can return to school with a medical clearance.

You are not required to complete RAHT for 28 days after a positive test as you may still carry a viral load but you are not considered infectious. You can resume testing after 28 days.

Students who are a household contact, which means they live with someone who has tested positive to Covid-19, will be required to complete the 7-day isolation.

Masks

Staff and Students are recommended to wear masks indoors.

Digital Technology Statement

At Kindlehill School, in the digital sphere, we educate students to advocate, create, collaborate and communicate for a fairer and more sustainable world. Their world is an interconnected world both digital and ecologically. We carefully prepare our students to flourish in both.
