DEECD Updates

ASBESTOS

 As part of the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development’s Health and Safety Management Plan, new labelling will be installed at our school.

The labels remind people to contact school reception prior to undertaking any works at the school, to ensure they have up-to-date information from the school’s asbestos register.  We have very few areas that are suspected of containing asbestos. Most areas are located behind splashbacks over sink areas where materials simply cannot be tested and therefore are treated with caution.

Asbestos - which was used extensively in building materials in the past but is now banned - is considered safe unless damaged or in poor condition.

 The new labels form part of a comprehensive program to ensure Victorian government schools remain safe.

Children’s safety is our number one priority. That is why we are taking this extra step as a precaution. As part of this process we have organised an inspection and audit of all areas on Monday.
