各位老師, 同學, 家長大家好：

連假的第一天，希望大家平安愉快！

首先，感謝配合學校要求，進行在家自主健康管理與自主學習的同學，還有老師們提供在家學習的線上學習資源。因為有大家的體諒與協助，我們才能繼續安心的到校上學。

疫情的管控，進入嚴峻的第二週，恰逢連續假期，學校的防疫小組與教育部也公布了“連續假期防疫注意事項”，在此公告周知，請大家務必配合。

1.清明假期期間（4/2-4/5），校園暫時關閉（包含伊藤萬,操場及球場）。假期間，請大家不要到校運動或遊玩。警衛巡邏發現違規者，將勸導離開。下週(4/6)之後，學校仍不開放，所有出入口將關閉，只有通往靜心湖的鐵門會有寶輝人員駐守，管制人員出入。（防疫小組）

2.受疫情影響，目前許多學生活動都取消辦理。惟四月的定向越野活動為戶外活動，因應疫情，我們將加強防疫措施，作法如下：

   1)活動將改在校園及園區內進行，不搭遊覽車，且縮短活動時間

   2)確認參加活動的學生體溫不超過37.5度

   3)集合時會保持一公尺的社交距離

   4)活動採分部進行（雙語、中學部學生分流辦理），減少單次參加人數

   5)活動打卡採電子式，學生活動路徑大抵有跡可循

   6)活動期間會請學生用酒精消毒手部並全程戴口罩

   參加的調查表已送出，家長可以評估學生身體狀況決定參加與否，不參加活動的學生，當日需擔任志工，協助活動。

(以下為教育部通報）

3.假期間，請大家持續量測體溫及勤洗手的好習慣，維持正常作息，以保身體健康。假期間如有身體不適或確診情形，請即時告知學校衛生組李慧中老師或回覆信件至主任信箱。我們必須配合校安通報事宜。

4.假期間，教職員工生除經教育部專案許可外,不得出國,並盡量減少出入人潮聚集場所;另為利後續可能之疫調所需,建議大家盡可能紀錄放假期間活動足跡日誌。

5.在連續假期期間,在國內參加集會活動須審慎評估,並對與會者資訊、活動場所條件等可能風險程度有充分了解,盡量避免出入人群聚集場所。

6.教職員工生應儘量避免接觸近日自國外返台之親友,尤其在居家檢疫、居家隔離、自主健康管理期間之親友。如近期有同住的家人自國外返國，也請告知主任，以利安排線上學習。

防疫工作不因假期懈怠，有大家的配合，返校後我們才能繼續安心上學。在此謝謝大家這段期間的支持與配合，敬祝大家連續假期平安健康。

Dear IBSH students, teachers, staff, and parents:

I hope this mail finds everyone safe and fine on the first day of the spring break!

First of all, I would like to give a big THANK YOU  to those students and parents who stayed at home to observe self-health management as requested by our school due after family members returned to Taiwan from overseas. I would also want to thank all of our teachers for providing online learning resources to the students who stayed at home. It meant a little more work for everyone involved, but with your flexibility and cooperation, everyone felt safe to come to school and we were able to keep school running on our regular schedule. 

The epidemic control has completed our second week; the NEHS/IBSH Epidemic Prevention Committee and M.O.E. announced the “Notice for Epidemic Prevention during the spring break” for you to observe and we appreciate your cooperation in advance.

1.Our campus is completely closed during spring break, this includes the New Gym, the  field and all courts. Please do not come to school for outdoor activities and exercise, people who violate the rules will be advised to leave.

Moving forward, the campus will be kept closed during the weekend. Only the iron net gate (between Lane 525 to the lake) will be opened with supervision by the New Gym operator.

(Decided by the NEHS/IBSH Epidemic Prevention Committee)

2. Many school activities are cancelled due to the epidemic. Since Orienteering is an outdoor activity, we are trying our best to conduct this activity with rigorous practices of epidemic prevention. Here are the precautions we will take:

   1)Orienteering will take place within the area of campus and Hsinchu-Science -Park.  

      We will not need to ride on buses, which will shorten the time length of the activity.

   2)We will check students’ body temperature before the activity.

   3)We will ensure the outdoor social distance (one meter length) when gathering the 

      students.   

   4)NEHS and IBSH will have orienteering in different time slots to reduce the participants interacting at once.

   5)Students will check-in at different spots with digital devices. It will be helpful for us to track 

      each participant's route.

   6)We will disinfect each participant’s hands with medical alcohol, and request them to 

       wear a mask the entire time.

We passed out the participation survey to Gr. 10-12 students yesterday.  With parents’ agreement, the student can participate in the activity. Students who will not join the activity may be requested to be helpers.

(The next notices come from M.O.E.)

3.Please keep the good habit of measuring body temperature everyday and washing hands frequently. A healthy schedule keeps us safer from virus. Any teacher or student who feels illness or who has confirmed a case of COVID-19, please report to the Sanitation Coordinator, Ms. Savannah Lee (savannah@ibsh.tw) or Dean Yichi Chu (yichi@ibsh.tw) through email. We have to follow up with the M.O.E. safety system. 

4.All teachers and students are not allowed to go abroad without specific approval from the M.O.E. in advance. We discourage all school community members from attending any crowded places.  Please record your activities, routes, and as many details as you can in your records in case they are requested for an epidemic investigation.

5.We discourage the school community members from going to any crowded places. If you participate in any assembly, please evaluate the risk of the event (such as participants, time length, location,  etc.)

6.Please avoid the gathering with relatives and friends who recently returned from overseas, and those who are going through  home-quarantine, home-isolation and self-health management.

If you have family members (living in the same house) returning from overseas recently, please inform the Dean by email, so we can keep our monitoring of the community and also arrange online learning for your child(ren).

Thank you all for your cooperation and we hope with everyone following the notices of epidemic prevention, we may continue to keep our school safe and healthy.

May everyone have a healthy and happy spring break!

Sincerely,

Yichi Chu,

Dean of IBSH
