Dear parents and carers
We are writing to you as parents/carers of a child or children in government, Catholic and independent schools across Victoria.
The Victorian Department of Health strongly recommends that face masks are worn in indoor settings.
As a result, we are asking all students aged 8 and over and all staff in all schools across Victoria to wear masks when in class (except where removing a mask is necessary for clear communication) from now to the end of winter.

Please see attached Department correspondence and full recommendations. pdf Updated face mask advice July 2022 (110 KB)

In a state first, a Memorandum of Understanding has been signed by Goulburn Valley Aboriginal Education Consultative Group Chair Nicole Atkinson and GSSC Executive Principal Barbara O’Brien.
There are 32 consultative groups across Victoria and the Goulburn Valley group is the first to sign a formal partnership with a school. The MOU is among the initiatives that won GSSC a prestigious Marrung Award and demonstrates a shared commitment to Aboriginal inclusion and closing the education gap for our Koorie students.

The statewide consultative groups have oversight from the Victorian Aboriginal Education peak body, the Victorian Aboriginal Education Association Incorporated. VAEAI shares a strategic partnership with Victoria’s Department of Education and Training and together they developed the Marrung Aboriginal Education Plan (2016-2026). The vision for this ground-breaking, 10-year plan is to ensure every Koorie person achieves their potential, success in life and comfort in their cultural identity.

As a school for community, GSSC recognises the importance of authentic partnerships.  This MOU partnership provides invaluable insights to assist with community consultation, curriculum development, community access and use of the GSSC community hub, culturally appropriate communication and engagement and input into activities and programs to support cultural identity and connectedness.  

Together GSSC and the Goulburn Valley Aboriginal Education Consultative Group will work to improve outcomes for Koorie students now and into the future
