Term 2 arrangements Tieri State School

From Monday 25th May, all students are able to return to school. I join our entire school team in warmly welcoming your child back. We have missed them. The decision to return to school for all Queensland students is supported by Queensland’s Chief Health Officer and aligns with progressive easing of restrictions as part of the Government’s response to COVID-19.

Transitioning back to school-based learning.

To assist you in understanding how schools will be implementing the transition back to school-based learning, the Department of Education have put together some frequently asked questions for parents. This includes hygiene practices such as effective hand hygiene, cough and sneeze etiquette, restricting visitors to the school and reminding you to notify our school if you child will not be attending.

What to do if  you feel uncomfortable sending them back to school?

We understand that some parents may choose to keep your child at home due to concerns about COVID-19 and this is respected. In this circumstance students will not be marked absent, rather that they are learning from home. It is however important that parents who choose to have their children stay at home please notify the school as you would normally do and discuss how we can support you as you continue home schooling your child.

In these cases parents and carers remain responsible for their children. This includes ensuring their children stay at home and continue their learning using the material and websites that can be accessed on the learning@home website qld.gov.au/learningathome.
