Dear Parents and Caregivers,

As I have communicated previously, the NSW Government announced that students would be returning to onsite learning from Monday, 25th October. Currently, St Dominic’s continues to operate under Level 4 plus restrictions, therefore our return roadmap will be dependent on the Public Health Orders changing and moving to Level 3 restrictions.

It is paramount that when we return to face-to-face teaching and learning our roadmap ensures the safety of students and staff. Therefore, the ‘SDC Return to School Roadmap’ will be staged over a three-week period with all students returning by Week 7. The NSW Health advice is that it is safest for students to return in stages rather than all at once and our roadmap has taken this staged approach into consideration as we welcome back our staff and students. It is important to note that when Years 7, 8, 9 and 10 return, they will return for one day each, initially, to ensure the safe return to face-to-face learning and the successful commencement of the HSC Examinations while abiding by all Public Health Orders at the time.

All of our students are important to us, especially Year 12 who will take priority in this roadmap to ensure the HSC Written Exams are completed without any COVID-19 challenges.

Yours sincerely,

 

Mr Michael Ronchetti – College Principal
