As you are aware, Fairfield West Public School was non-operational today, Thursday 2 September 2021 for the on-site attendance of staff and students due to a member of the school community who tested positive to COVID-19.
The NSW Department of Education and NSW Health have been working closely to ensure the health and safety of all students and staff is maintained. This work has included identifying close contacts of the confirmed case.
NSW Health have quickly assessed the situation at our school and have confirmed that no staff or students are close contacts.
The school has been thoroughly cleaned and will be operational from Friday 3 September 2021 for any child who is unable to learn from home.
The safety and wellbeing of our staff and students is of paramount importance to us at all times. As such we will continue to work closely with NSW Health to ensure that all necessary health advice is adhered to.
Further information on COVID-19 is available on the NSW Government website.
