As we are located near water we do see a large number of mossies. If your child is susceptible to bites we can accomodate using a repellent. Please provide with chemist labels. No aerosol sprays please. See your educator for further information.
❗ The risk of mosquito borne disease transmission is currently high in South Australia.
Viruses that can cause serious diseases like encephalitis, which may be fatal or cause long-term neurological damage, have been detected.
There has also been a spike in Ross River virus cases.
There is currently no vaccine or cure for South Australian mosquito-borne diseases.
Protect yourself and your family by covering up with long, loose clothing, using insect repellent, and eliminating the water mosquitoes breed in.
Cover up. Repel. Eliminate.
