Our COVID reporting for yesterday is that there are still no exposures at Holy Trinity for any student or staff member.

We will again on Monday be sending home 2 RATs per child for Week 2 testing.  Please note that you are not mandated to test on a particular day; you may choose to do this across the week, or wait until you observe symptoms or if there has been a risk of exposure. 

COVID FAQ

This has been a frequent question in the past few days:

If a student is a close contact of a COVID case who lives in their residence, then another family member is diagnosed with COVID a few days later, do the seven days reset?

• No, but the child must have a negative test on Day 6 before returning to school.
• However it is likely the child will contract COVID. As such, parents must:

• Watch very closely for symptoms
• Continue undertaking the two weekly RAT tests

Unwell at school

Any student or staff member who is unwell and/or displays symptoms of COVID-19 will be asked to go home and stay until they can complete a RAT or PCR test.

• If a student or staff member displays even mild COVID-19 symptoms, they must take a RAT or get a PCR test and isolate until they receive a negative test result.
• Students must not come to school until they are symptom free, even if they get a negative RAT result. Please ensure that children do not come to school with any COVID symptoms unless you have evidence of clearance from a GP.  e.g hay fever.
