Safeguard Against COVID-19:  14-day Leave of Absence for Students Staying with a Person who Returned to Singapore from Overseas Travel

Posted on 25 March 2020

Dear Parents/Guardians/Students,

We would like to welcome all SYAS students back to school.

The Ministry of Education (MOE) has recently announced new enhanced precautionary measures to further protect the education system. The link to the press release can be found here. SYAS has issued a letter to all students in response to the latest MOE regulation for students and parents/guardians to follow up.

Even though the above LOA regulation affects our primary school students, SYAS is taking extra precaution by extending the same LOA regulation to all secondary school students as both our primary and secondary school students share the same premises.

In the meantime, SYAS will continue to administer existing precautionary measures in school to ensure that the school remains a safe and secure environment for all. 

Furthermore, we have newly purchased a thermal scanner to take the temperature in the morning and made arrangements to seat students further apart in class as well as in the canteen.

We seek your cooperation to exercise social responsibility as Singapore moves as a society to contain the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

SYAS Administration
