School Update

All CEDoW schools are currently open and operational

• At this stage (25 March 2020), there has been no direction from the government or Catholic Schools NSW to close any schools, except in response to a positive COVID-19 diagnosis in a student or staff member.
• We have not had any confirmed cases of COVID-19 in any of our schools (including staff and students).
• If the situation changes, we will update CEDoW school communities as soon as new information becomes available
