July 27, 2021 – College update on COVID-19

Dear Parents, Carers and Guardians of St Patrick’s College,

Following this morning’s announcement regarding the end to the latest COVID lockdown, we are happy to report that the College will be welcoming all staff and students back on-site for face-to-face learning tomorrow (Wednesday, July 28).

We remind all students though that the wearing of masks remains mandatory except while eating or during times of exercise. All students arriving at school tomorrow must wear masks unless they have a medical exemption. Please ensure that your son(s) comes to school with a mask tomorrow and in the weeks ahead.

We are excited that face-to-face learning will resume and thank all staff and students for their professionalism while operating in a remote learning environment over the past ten days. Staff have worked tirelessly to ensure the continuity of learning for our boys during this latest period of remote learning and for this, we are grateful.

We also thank all parents for their ongoing understanding and support as we strive to provide the best educational outcomes for all boys, even in these challenging times.

Steven O’Connor

Principal
