Only students and staff will be allowed onto the site during the school day. This is to minimise the risk of transmission of infection. The KISC site will be available for bookings of parties of 10 to parents and staff from 3:30 Monday to Thursday and 3:00 on Friday. The site will still be available for bookings on weekends during Phase 3. ption text goes here

Online learning will continue with the addition of enrichment experiences for those on site. At breaks and lunchtime, students will be able to interact with their peers, but will need to observe social distancing. Research shows that, provided social distancing is followed, the risk of transmission in well ventilated areas such as outside, is greatly reduced. The health benefits of children being able to interact outweigh the possible transmission in such an environment. Children can continue to wear their mask outside if they so choose. Break times and lunchtime will allow students to play with others in their bubble, but there will not be any organised activities during these times.

The Head of Primary has released a video on the Primary website for students on other ways to express affection to others during this time. Whilst students will not be allowed to make physical contact with each other, students will be encouraged to express affection through other means.

Buses will be running, but they will have Covid secure measures in place to keep students in a minimal transmission environment. This will include clearly marked areas for seating with physical distancing, mask wearing, temperature checks, sanitizer, and increased airflow.

Staff and parents can help prepare students for their return to site by directing them to the videos about different aspects of returning to site that can be found the KISC YouTube channel.

Students will be able to go outside in order to eat and drink at break and lunch. Once outside they can remove their mask in order to eat or drink. If it is necessary to eat or drink during a lesson, the student should ask their supervisory staff for permission to go outside to do this. Such requests should be kept to a minimum and it needs to be recognised that the supervising staff may refuse the request if it is unnecessary, and ask the student to wait until the next break or lunchtime.

Inside the building, mask wearing is compulsory for students from Grades 1 to 12. Students pre-K and K will not be required to wear masks. The key protection protocols will be ‘Hands, Face, Space’. Hands: We all need to wash our hands regularly, and where we can’t wash our hands, we use sanitizer to provide some protection. Face: We need to wear a mask indoors at all times unless we are a member of staff working on our own in an empty space such as an office. Outdoors it is the choice of the member of staff or student whether they wish to wear a mask, but also to be aware of the dangers of mask wearing during heavy exertion. Space: We need to maintain social distancing at all times, indoors and outside. Everyone must stay at least 1.5 metres away from other people to minimise the possibility of transmission of infection.

In the Primary school, we will provide a set of writing utensils, scissors, glue, etc. for your child. The student can certainly choose to bring these from home. Notebooks will be provided at school. Secondary students need to bring their own set of notebooks, pens, pencils, calculators, etc.

For the Primary school, one snack for morning and one for the afternoon (optional). Please also send a pack lunch. Secondary students have one morning break and one lunch break.

8:00 to 3:10. Students may arrive as early as 7:45 AM.
