SINGAPORE — The Learning Vision@Work pre-school centre at National University Hospital Medical Centre will be closed for a week from Thursday (16 April), after one of its teaching staff tested positive for COVID-19.
In a media release on Wednesday, the Early Childhood Development Agency (ECDA) said that the staff member was last in the centre at Lower Kent Ridge Road on 9 April. The closure of the premises thus covers the 14-day incubation period of the coronavirus.
All affected staff and children at the centre will be placed on a Leave of Absence during the closure period. Contact tracing is ongoing.
The centre said that it will also conduct a thorough cleaning and disinfection of the pre-school premises, and is closely monitoring its staff and parents on the health of their children.
Barring any new developments, the Centre will resume limited service provision on 24 April, to serve parents who are working in essential services and are unable to extend their alternative care arrangements beyond the closure period.
