COVID-19 at Hawker Area School
This morning, a positive COVID-19 case from a staff member was reported in the Secondary class.
Students should continue to attend school. You must ensure your child is well and has no symptoms of COVID-19 (even mild) prior to them attending each day.
If your child develops COVID-19 symptoms, they should undertake a rapid antigen test (RAT). If the result is positive you must inform the school immediately.
Please keep positive COVID-19 cases at home until acute symptoms have cleared (usually 5 to 7 days) and take steps to protect others. See SA Health advice on ‘What to do if I have COVID-19’ for further guidance. If your child has symptoms they should stay at home until they are well, even if they test negative.
If your child has recently recovered from COVID-19, they do not need to test within 28 days of testing positive. However, it is important that they stay home if they have COVID-19 symptoms.
Siblings of confirmed positive cases are considered a close contact and should follow close contact advice from SA Health.
We will continue to provide updates of positive COVID-19 cases in our school.
