Late last night we were officially informed that the Victorian Government has announced additional steps to combat the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19), including bringing forward the school holidays in Victoria to commence from Tuesday 24 March.
All staff will use the next four days for planning and preparation for the likely transition to flexible and remote learning.
Please ensure that you are registered and able to use Xuno and See Saw for further communciation.
We will keep you updated as we are informed.
The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is without precedent in living memory, and it is taking us into the most challenging of times – as individuals, in our communities and as a society.
Stay safe x
Update: coronavirus (COVID-19)
We have received further updates over night with some significant decision made in relation to the impact of coronavirus (COVID 19) on schools.
ADDITIONAL PUPIL-FREE DAYS
The Minister of Education today approved an additional two pupil-free days. The first will be on the last day of this term – Friday March 27th – and the second will be on the first day of Term 2 – Tuesday April 14th – after the school holidays.
This is to support schools to consolidate preparations for the possibility that we will need to move, at some stage to more flexible learning arrangements, including remote learning.
Irymple South Primary School, in line with all Victorian Government schools will remain open next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and will continue to provide a full range of classroom teaching, learning and social activities that are so important for our students.
As previously advised Monday March 23rd is a Pupil Free Day.

Unfortunately due to ongoing daily advice and guidelines from the Department of Education, we are cancelling ourLearning Conferences on Monday March 23rd. The Department have stated that we need to avoid unnecessary contact and limit social distancing by suspending group work and altering seating arrangements. Both teachers and students are really disappointed in this, as a lot of work has gone into preparation and the opportunity to share learning success. Please note that Monday is still a Curriculum Day and students are ‘NOT’ required at school.
