Perhaps Australian educational institutions could prepare to implement blended learning/e-Learning, if some or all, students are not able to attend campus, due to the Wuhan Coronavirus, bushfires, or other natural disasters.

Victoria's Pandemic Influenza Incident Response Plan for schools says:

"... for students at home, provide access to educational materials including online learning." Page 28: https://www.education.vic.gov.au/Documents/school/principals/health/pandemicprocedure.docx

However, I couldn't find any indication this has been tested.

Singapore are the precedent for this, with "E-Learning Week.": https://cpb-us-w2.wpmucdn.com/blog.nus.edu.sg/dist/0/119/files/2011/03/national-university-of-singapores-campus-wide-elearning-week.pdf
