At KPS OOSH, the health, safety and wellbeing of our community is always our utmost priority. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we are committed to upholding best safety practice and sustaining children’s joy and continuity in care.

 

Family Safety

Families are reminded children should not be attending school nor KPS OOSH if:

  • They are experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms
  • They are as a close or casual contact of someone with COVID-19

Children with COVID-19 symptoms must arrange a test with approved COVID-19 clinics, and need to provide a copy of a negative test result to return to the service. If your child is positive for COVID-19 please self-isolate and follow the NSW Department of Health guidance.

In accordance with the NSW Term 4 Roadmap, all carers engaging with the service must check in using the Service NSW QR Code available on Gate 1, and wear an approved facemask.

For information regarding children and family wellbeing please do not hesitate to access NSW wellbeing resources and seek support.
