Illness Outbreaks

Should there be a significant number of cases of a particular illness at school, we will take special precautions, such as taking the temperature of every child on arrival at school, disinfecting the classrooms or asking infected children to stay at home for a stipulated number of days. Parents are requested to inform the school office immediately if their child has been diagnosed with a specific contagious illness. The school will close down to a year level that has reached a critical number of students with the same infectious disease. The number required is based on the guidelines from the Ministry of Health and depends on the disease. For the Covid-19 outbreak, the school provides special instructions and preventions specifically for this; please see this link for detailed information.
