COVID-19 update for families - 8 February 2022

Dear families and wider school community

Some of you may already be aware that since opening we have had a number of positive COVID-19 cases on site.

Following a risk assessment undertaken by the COVID Operations Medical Team, SA Health recommended the closure of the ¶¶Òõ¸£ÀûÊÓƵ Harbor High School Disability Unit for a minimum of 24 hours. This time will allow health and education officials to work together to obtain further information and make a further assessment. Ultimately this decision was made to ensure the safety of students within our unit setting, which remains a key priority.

Information on how schools are responding is available from the Department for Education’s website: 

Note: This closure only effects the learning programs within our Disability Unit, with all other on-site learning programs continuing for students in year 7, 8, 12, Wellbeing and ¶¶Òõ¸£ÀûÊÓƵ Hub and our Special Class.

This closure highlights the importance of preventative measures, keeping your child home if unwell or showing even mild symptoms, and accessing SA Health testing. If your child does test positive or is required to isolate, please contact our Student Services team and they will adjust attendance records and make teachers aware so they may offer additional support.

If you require more information on COVID-19, please visit the SA Health website: [www.sahealth.sa.gov.au/COVID2019]

Keep safe and contact us if your student requires further support.
