AUSTRALIA: From the Premier for the State of Victoria: "Businesses in

metropolitan Melbourne and Mitchell Shire will also return to Stage 3

restrictions. Restaurants and cafes will return to takeaway and delivery

services only. Beauty and personal services will need to close. Entertainment

and cultural venues will need to close. Community sport will need to stop...

Many parents, teachers and students will be worried about what happens with the

school year. I can confirm that all Year 11 and Year 12 students in metropolitan

Melbourne and Mitchell Shire will go back to school for Term 3 as planned, along

with our special schools. For students Prep to Year 10, we're going to extend

the school holidays by one week, so we can get more advice from our health

experts. But I want to be upfront and let parents know that a return to remote

learning for these kids is a possibility, if that's what they tell us is safest.

For people who live in regional Victoria, where case numbers remain low, current

restrictions will remain the same for now."
