All major activities and events will temporarily be ceased in NSW public schools


Echo NetDaily, 15 March 2020:

All major arts, sports and initiative activities and events will temporarily be ceased until further notice. This includes whole school sporting events and inter-school events involving three or more schools.
‘Local inter-school sport and other activities, can proceed but we ask organisers to ensure that as far as possible, reasonable precautions are taken,’ he said.
‘I trust our principals and staff to show leadership during this time.
Schools will be provided with more detailed advice and suggestions on how they can adjust their day to day activities with minimal disruption.
The Department is continuing to prepare for further closures if necessary with scaling up of technology, additional training of staff and preparation of offsite lessons.
