Omicron and the Red Traffic Light
We are really proud of our students coming to school each day focused on their learning and playing. The students Year 4 and above are great at wearing masks and everyone is amazing with sanitising. These great actions could prevent them being a close contact if someone in their class tests positive.
On Monday everyone came home with a paper version of the frequently asked questions below. These are very confusing times and we are here to help in anyway we can.
Phase 2 of the Red traffic light is all about close contacts. If you are a close contact of a positive case you need to isolate and get tested on day 5 after being in contact with the positive case. If you are a contact of the close contact you can carry on going to school and work and just watching for symptoms.
Managing cases of covid
The information around the different things people need to do in different situations can be confusing. We have tried to present the information we know at this time in a way that is easy to make sense of.
Please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions or concerns.

New Newsletter, website and app
It is great to see more and more people using the app. This is especially handy for letting us know about absences or sending messages through. Our app will improve and grow in time as we put more and more on it, it will become more and more useful.
To get the app on your device go to the app store. Search "SchoolAppsNZ" and download the app onto your device. Then search St Bernadette's School in that app.
Attendance dues
Please do not let attendance dues be a stress for you and your family. Regular payments are the best way to go but if at anytime you are worried about attendance dues - please come and see me. I can help.
