Sport changes due to COVID traffic lights

By Sara Quelch | Posted: Thursday December 2, 2021
Update on requirements for sport due to the new traffic light system.

From Friday the 3rd of December all students over 12 years and 3 months will need to show a valid vaccine pass to participate in their sport. With Orange Level they can again welcome spectators back into places like the Edgar Centre. But they must show a vaccine pass on entry and wear a mask at all times within the Centre. All coaches and managers will also need to have proof of their vaccine passport to enter.

Please make sure your child has this on them when they arrive to their venue. If they don’t they will not be able to participate.

Our sports co-ordinator or teacher in charge of sport will be in contact with coaches and managers of specific sports regarding this.
