Dear parents, carers and students,

Our school has been advised of a reported case of coronavirus (COVID-19). 

This case has been reported to the Department of Education and Training (DET), and the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) is currently undertaking further investigation.

As a precautionary measure, the Wanganui Campus at ÃÛÌÒÅ®º¢ will be closed for 24 hours initially, or until we receive advice it can re-open. The campus will be closed to all students, staff and members of the community. Both of the other campuses, Mooroopna and McGuire remain open for on-site learning.

During the initial closure period, all students and staff from the Wanganui Campus must remain at home while DHHS undertakes contact tracing. This includes limiting movements to home-based activities and not attending public places.

We will provide further information following confirmation of advice from DHHS.

To slow the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19), Stage 3 restrictions now apply for regional and rural Victoria and Stage 4 restrictions now apply for metropolitan Melbourne.

 All schools across Victoria have returned to remote and flexible learning, for all year levels, except for specialist school students in rural and regional Victoria, for the rest of Term 3.

Face coverings are compulsory for all Victorians over the age of 12. The exception to this is students over the age of 12 attending primary school, who are not required to wear a face covering while at school. Further information on the use of face coverings in schools can be found on the

We have reprinted this letter in the languages of  pdf Arabic (211 KB) ,  pdf Dari (165 KB) , and  pdf Swahili (86 KB)  to assist members of our school community.
