16th June 2021

Following the Covid-19 press briefing held by the Secretary to the Cabinet earlier this afternoon, Chengelo School will be closing in line with the Government directive stating that all pre, primary and secondary schools should close for a period of 21 days.
During the course of tomorrow, arrangements will be made for the school to close and parents may collect their children on Friday 18th June between 07.00hrs and 16.00hrs and on Saturday, 19th June between 07.00hrs and 12.00hrs.
Please note that student collection will strictly be a “pick-up and go” arrangement to comply with Covid-19 protocols and in order to keep our community as safe as possible.
International Students
Due to the inevitable delays in travel for our International students, the school will look after these children until safe travel arrangements can be made. Please can we ask that parents of any International students currently at Chengelo contact the school as soon as possible to discuss travel plans.
Daily Students
Parents of daily students in both Primary and Secondary should not bring their children to the school campus tomorrow, Thursday 17th June.
Re-Opening
School will re-open on Sunday the 11th of July, 2021 and will close for the holidays on Saturday 7th August, 2021.
Naturally, the school will continue to monitor the situation and follow Government directives as and when issued and we will keep parents regularly updated via email.
Thank you for your continued support and prayers at this time.

Stay safe and God bless

Principal
