We look forward to returning to school in a full time capacity as of Monday 25 May (Week 5).
Whilst we will experience a sense of normality, ALL ADULTS (i.e. parents, carers and BPS staff) will still need to practice physical distancing, as per the advice of the NSW Department of Education.
We will continue to maintain our ‘kiss and drop’ zones in the morning, where we ask parents to say goodbye to their child/ren at the school gates and supervise their entry. At this time, we ask that all parents and carers remain outside the school gates.
We will also be implementing staggered home times for students at the end of the school day. Classroom teachers will wait with their class at a designated school exit (see table with location and times below).
We ask that parents remain outside the school gates at all times and practise these physical distancing measures.
Below is a table outlining where students will be dismissed and at what time. As students will be dismissed in waves, it is imperative that parents stand away from the gate upon their designated time to collect their child. Parents and students are asked to move away from their designated area in a prompt and efficient manner.
Please note: Class teachers will remain with their class, at designated spot, until all students have been picked up, either by parents/carers, or Eaton St Centre (ESC), if booked in. The ESC staff are aware of the staggered dismissal and will pick up children from their teachers at designated areas.
We understand that it is possible that you might have children in different or various stages. In this instance, we ask that you still collect your children at their designated time and gate.
We appreciate your cooperation in working with the school to keep our students, staff and community safe.
