Students and staff at a school in Colwood are being warned of potential exposure to the novel coronavirus.
In the past 24 hours, Island Health has added École John Stubbs Memorial School — located on Zealous Road in Colwood — to their COVID-19 exposure list.
The exposure dates are May 5 and 6.
Island Health defines an exposure as a single person with a lab-confirmed COVID-19 infection who attended school during their infectious period.
The health authority says a child can continue to attend school if a parent or guardian does not receive a phone call or letter from public health.
Should a parent or guardian see a notification on Island Health’s school exposure site, it does not necessarily mean their child has been exposed to COVID-19.
