Social Distancing

It is important to follow all of the advice we are being given about social distancing and self-isolating. If we all do our part by staying home with our immediate family only, then we will flatten the curve & reduce the impact of COVID-19 on our community.

This means changes to how we do things. It will be difficult for families – no socialising, no play dates, no trips away, no family visits or gathering for Easter – but we all need to do our part & follow the guidelines.

Remember when you’re not involved in formal learning to have some fun! Enjoy some quality time with your children – play, read books, play some more, build cubbies in your loungeroom, back yard cricket, Lego, board games, puzzles, bike rides and more.
