RETURN TO SPORT POSTPONED

The ACC Principals made the decision today to postpone the planned resumption of the ACC sport and events program for Term 3.

Towards the end of Term 2, there were very positive signs that the strategies in place from Federal and State Governments for the suppression of Covid-19 were working effectively. The recent dramatic increase in localised infection numbers, along with the return of lockdown protocols in certain areas of Melbourne, provide a clear picture that there is still a long way to go in suppressing this virus. The safety and wellbeing of the students, staff and families within our school communities will always be the most important factor in any decision regarding our programs returning. As such, there will be no interschool sport or activities until there is advice from the Victorian Education Department and the Catholic Education Commission of Victoria that it is safe to resume.

There has been significant interruption to the academic and co-curricular programs for all ACC schools in 2020. We are hopeful that we can resume activities at some point in Term 3 and we will continue to keep you updated as best we can. The current state of emergency in Victoria is in place until July 29th. A further update from the ACC Executive will follow after that date.
