Aviva Singing Studio adheres to the following safety plan to ensure safety for all staff and students and to be able to continue operating.

 

In-person lessons can proceed as long as all students are registered on the student portal for contact tracing and their lessons are in the calendar. There are a few conditions:

 

1. Students and teachers are requested to stay away for two weeks (or until a negative test result has been obtained) if showing symptoms of Covid-19 such as:

 

- Dry cough

- High temperature

- Shortness of breath

- Chest pain or pressure

 

1. If a student or teacher has visited any declared Covid hot-spots, they must stay away for two weeks. Or obtain a negative test.

2. Online lessons will be offered at a mutually suitable time in the meantime if suitable notice is given for cancellation of lessons. Please note that last minute cancellations or “no shows” will forfeit their lesson fee without a make up lesson.

3. If you have visited social contacts who are waiting on Covid-19 test results or have been tested positive with Covid, please let me know as soon as possible.

4. If you have been tested, it is vital to self-isolate for the days or weeks leading up to the test

results. If tested positive, please inform the studio and self-isolate for another 14 days.

To minimise the risk of Covid 19, there are some hygiene precautions that should be taken:

 

• Thorough handwashing and/or sanitizing before your lesson

• Bring your own water bottle, pencil, microphone (if we have arranged to do microphone work)

• Prolonged singing should be performed at a minimum distance of 2 metres

• Close physical interaction should be short and only when necessary.

• Studio equipment will be sanitized between students

• Good airflow reduces the risk of catching Covid-19 from aerosols so fans, windows and air conditioners will be utilised wherever available.

 

To minimise the risk of Covid-19 in the community, you can follow these guidelines

 

• Thorough hand washing and sanitising before and after eating

• Refraining from touching the face

• Coughing or sneezing into an elbow or tissue – after which, sanitise thoroughly

• Social distancing if you have any symptoms of a cold, flu, or covid 19 to minimise risk

to others

• Following legal social distancing requirements
