PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
COVID UPDATE
We move through Term 3 as normally as possible with teaching and learning returning to that now popular phrase – ‘a new normal’. As cases are reported in newspapers and radio it seems that we are surrounded by Covid incidences here in the Macarthur. Unfortunately, this may be a reality for quite some time - hearing of small outbreaks/infections and then the measures taken to control them.
We have had a large number of Staff and students with sniffles and coughs that have been tested as a result of medical directions. All have returned negative and John Therry Catholic College remains Covid free and safe. We continue to enforce the NSW Government Health regulations in relation to sanitizing, hand washing and distancing as adults. The attitude of the students has been admirable and should be commended.
As we move into the Trial HSC exams a series of safety recommendations have been recommended for schools by NSW Health. These were discussed with Year 12 students at their Pastoral Meeting yesterday and will not impact greatly on the exam process.
