Latest Aspect Services Update

Updated: 21st June 2021

All Aspect services are currently operating.

Sydney has recently reported a number of new cases of COVID-19 infection and Aspect is closely monitoring NSW Government advice for any changes that may affect our services.

Aspect is also continuing to follow the latest advice from the Victorian Government following the recent outbreak.

Additional safety measures have been put in place at all Aspect locations to protect the health and wellbeing of our students, participants and staff.

We are following Government guidelines on COVID-safe practices and we have developed a COVID-19 Safety Plan, implemented across all of our sites and services.

You can read our COVID-19 Safety Plan here.
