Severe Weather Event Advice to Parents
In the event of a cyclone or severe weather impacting on our Catholic schools, regularly updated information will be available on the following:
* Townsville Catholic Education website www.tsv.catholic.edu.au LATEST NEWS section on homepage.
* Twitter - you can follow us on www.twitter.com/tceo
* Facebook - you can follow us on www.facebook.com/TownsvilleCEO
* Listen to local readio stations (ABC in all regions) plus various local commercial stations for updates.
* Instagram - townsville_catholic_education
Please make sure your compass details are up to date as this is the avenue the school will use to contact parents directly.
If a decision is made overnight to close schools, this message will be broadcast from 7am, earlier if possible. Please refrain from calling schools before 7am as this causes disruption to vital communication networks.
Parents should be advised that on occasion it is difficult to call through to radio stations, so patience is appreciated if message broadcasts are delayed in any way.
Please refer to the above methods of communication as your first source of information. Please use your best discretion in the interests of safety at all times.
