Last Week of Term

As we race towards the end of Term 1 we would once again like to thank the Patana community for their ongoing support. All our students are excited about the upcoming holidays and next week we would encourage students to wear their festive accessories throughout the week.

On Friday the 17th of December we have a festive (Christmas) dress-up. Children are encouraged to wear their festive T-shirts, Christmas jumpers, and festive headwear.

Christmas Shoe box Appeal

Thankyou for all your support in sending in shoeboxes filled with goodies! The students will be wrapping them this week in preparation for them to be delivered by Santa.

COVID 19 Community Response Plan

Please carefully read the document below that details all of the COVID protocols. A reminder to test your child and submit your child's ATK results before Sunday at 5pm.

CSL

The current Hybrid CSL model will continue until the end of Term 1. At the moment, we wish to support our students’ learning the best we can, but we are moving to a CSL model for the following situations:

1. The student’s class/year group is closed for 3 days because of a Covid+ case/s.
2. The student is in 14-day isolation because they are Covid+ or a high-risk contact
3. The student has been overseas since the beginning of the academic year (August 2021) and is not able to return before 10th January 2022.

The situations in which we will not provide Hybrid CSL for are:

1. The student is on holiday or visiting family, including leaving school mid-term to travel.
2. The student is generally unwell. This includes symptomatic Covid+ cases. Once the student is well again, CSL will be provided for the remainder of their isolation period.
3. If a student is identified as low risk or no risk.

Other circumstances will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Birthdays

If you would like to send in some birthday treats for your child to share with their class, please arrange a day with your child's class teacher.

We will only be able to manage individual items like brownies or cupcakes. Please remember we are a nut-free Primary School.

Happy Birthday to these students, who are celebrating this week...
