Glenroy College is welcoming students back into classrooms from this week after the State Government brought forward plans to end lockdown and reopen schools.
Students in years 7, 10 and 11 will return to onsite learning at Glenroy College from this Friday (22 October). Year 12 VCAL students have already resumed classes at the College.
Covid-safe practices, including compulsory mask-wearing, regular cleaning and sanitisation of classrooms, and distancing rules, will be in place to protect the health and safety of staff and students. Vaccination against Covid isn’t compulsory for students, but is highly recommended.
