After our recent short break we’re excited to be reopening our doors at 6.00am tomorrow Wednesday 28 July.
As a Tier 1 Exposure Site, we have worked closely with the Department of Health over the past week to take all appropriate steps to support our safe reopening, including a deep environmental clean and disinfection of the entire facility. As part of this process the Department also reviewed our COVID Safe plan and protocols, with all of these measures contributing to our clearance to reopen.
With the Government today releasing their careful and safe steps for lifting Victoria’s lockdown, our team have worked behind the scenes to ensure that as many of our programs and services can safely return, whilst adhering to all of the latest guidelines.
