should have recently received a letter (via school) from the Chief
Executive of DECS outlining some important changes to the the way that
high risk schools located in bushfire prone areas will operate during
the fire danger season. As
Craigburn is located in a bushfire prone area as part of the Mt Lofty
Ranges District, we have in place a bushfire ready plan in the event of
a total fire ban being issued for this district. As
per the letter, an additional level of alert has been introduced, where
the State Government will close high-risk public schools in specific
fire ban districts on days where when the fire danger index is forecast
at 100 or more - Catastrophic (Code Red) Level. This means that Craigburn will CLOSE when the bushfire level is forecast as Catastrophic (Code Red) level.
An ADVANCE WARNING will be provided to school principals TWO DAYS BEFORE a possible school closure.
A CONFIRMATION of the closure will be provided the day BEFORE the school is to close (after 4.00pm, following CFS advice).
Please
note that we will be using multiple forms of communication to ensure
all parents / carers receive information regarding school closures.
This includes:
- letters handed out to all students on the days we receive the alert
- information via the school website - www.craigburn.sa.edu.au
- message left on the school answering service - after-hours
If
unsure you may contact the front office via the phone, however, we ask
that families network with each other where possible to minimise
congestion on the school phone lines. We will endeavour to make information available to families as early as possible.
Extra copies of the DECS letter to parents are available from the front office or can be downloaded here.
