19 March 2020 Coronavirus Update

SHC continues to follow Ministry of Health guidelines and because of this we do have staff and students in self-isolation.

We do not have any cases of the disease at our school but we are being vigilant to decrease the chance of widespread community outbreak.

We ask that you continue to send your student to school and encourage them to follow the basic principles of hygiene and cough/sneeze etiquette, including:

• regularly washing hands for at least 20 seconds, and drying thoroughly
• covering coughs or sneezes with clean tissues or your elbow and then clean your hands

If a student is unwell, they should stay away from school and avoid public events and gatherings until they are feeling better.
