Alert Level 3 - School Closed Again

 Greetings all

It was with great disappointment that we acknowledge that once again school is closed to students.  This means that all additional meetings scheduled for this week including the powhiri, BOT meeting, pumpkin weigh-in and meeting for parents of 4-year-olds is postponed.

On Monday only the DP and Principal will be onsite to manage any queries that you may have.  Please be patient as we assist those before you and call ahead if you need to visit the school.

A set of general activities can be made available for students set according to their year level but parents are encouraged to use at-home experiences as this will lessen the need to 'be the teacher'.  These activities could include things such as board games, cards, being curious in the garden and local surrounds as you walk. Conversation about observations is learning - so are turn-taking and rules when playing games.

Should the lockdown be extended beyond a week, we will put into place opportunities to collect devices for years 4 - 8. For those students who already have their devices, their class sites have additional learning opportunities.

Once again

Be safe, stay well
