The Premier announced earlier today that as of tomorrow, Friday, October 29th, test results will not need to be collected at school.   Here is the information from today’s press release:

Changes to mandatory order regarding rapid test results

Beginning tomorrow, unvaccinated students who are required to take rapid tests at home because they have been identified as a close contactwithin a school setting will no longer need to present their negative result to their school each day.

As a result of this change, the mandatory order has been updated to include a provision that falsifying or deliberately misrepresenting the results of a rapid test will be a fineable offence.

It they have two negative rapid test results, the child can return to school.

If the results are positive, it is the parents’ responsibility to ensure that a PCR test is booked immediately through Public Health to confirm the results. The child must isolate until they receive a negative PCR test result.

Thank you.
