Re: COVID-19 at Epping Public School

As advised on Monday 6 December 2021, a member of our school community has tested positive to COVID-19.

You have not been identified as a contact of the confirmed case and therefore are not required to be tested or to isolate.

Please be mindful of symptoms such as a fever, cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, runny nose, loss of smell/taste, muscle/joint pains, diarrhoea, nausea/vomiting or extreme tiredness.

If you develop any of these symptoms, please:

·       Go to a COVID-19 testing clinic (see details below); and

·       Call the school to let us know and remain at home until you receive confirmation that the test is negative or your symptoms have resolved, whichever is longer.

You can find your nearest COVID-19 testing clinic here.

Advice and resources are available on the NSW Health website including further information about COVID-19. Additional resources are also available on the NSW Government website.

The Department of Education has a range of services and programs to support your physical and psychological wellbeing on the Being Well intranet page. In addition, the Department's Employee Assistance Program - Supporting You is available for confidential counselling services on 1800 060 650.

The safety and wellbeing of our staff and students is paramount at all times. As such, we will continue to work closely with NSW Health to ensure that all necessary health advice is closely followed.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Sarah Semler

Principal
