90 Day COVID Rules

As per the attached image, the rules around isolation for those affected by a second case of COVID have now changed.

If YOU are infected for a second time, within 90 days of your first positive test, you now only have to stay home until 24 hours after you no longer have symptoms. There is no longer a requirement to isolate for the full 7 days, unless symptomatic.

If you test positive MORE THAN 90 days after your first positive test then you need to follow the same rules as for a first infection.

Please see the image for information about household contacts.

For further information, please refer to the Ministry of Health website here:

Due to the change in the rules, if your child gets COVID and is within the 90 day category, can we please ask you to update us daily on whether they will be at school.
