Dear Parents/Carers,
As you will all be aware, lockdown has been extended until 4pm Sunday 8th August. This means we will be providing home learning resources from tomorrow, Tuesday 3rd August to Friday 6th August.
We will have hardcopy packs available for all students for collection from the Fern Tce gate from 8:30am – 9:30am on Tuesday morning (tomorrow). Please stay in your car and staff will give you the appropriate packs for your students. If you cannot come during these times, the packs will be available for you to collect from the table on the footpath on Fern Tce. Please do not enter the school grounds at this time.
Teachers will also upload the daily learning onto Class DoJo each day. We ask that you or your student/s check in daily with their class teacher/s – they will be available to answer questions about the learning each day.
Unless otherwise notified, next Monday 9th August is the RNA show holiday for the Redlands. Therefore, home learning packs can be brought back when we return to school on Tuesday 10th August. However, if the lockdown continues beyond Sunday, home learning packs can be returned and new packs collected on Tuesday 10th August.
To clarify some questions that have been asked, the following information has been taken from the Queensland Health Government website –
