A student with COVID-19 attended the junior school at the Forde campus, which covers kindergarten to year 2, on November 19 and 22.

All kindergarten to year 2 students attending there are now being kept home, while ACT Health works with the school to assess the situation, including contact tracing efforts.

The junior school campus is closed for deep cleaning, with online learning for the affected year groups from Wednesday.

All other year levels at the Forde campus and all of Valley campus remain open.

"I am confident teaching and learning will not be disrupted as we pivot those affected year levels to our Burgmann online program," the school's principal, Steven Bowers, said in a statement.

"I am hopeful that we will all be able to come together by the end of the term to celebrate a successful conclusion of 2021."

Two more exposure dates were listed for Orana Steiner School, on Thursday, November 18 and Friday, November 19.

The school was already listed for the dates of November 1, 2, 4 as well as 8-11.

There are currently 23 schools across Canberra that have been affected by COVID-19 exposures, with St Thomas the Apostle Catholic Primary School in Kambah added on Monday.
