COVID-19 Principal update Friday 10 September
M膩l艒 e lelei
I hope you have all enjoyed Tongan language week and are looking forward to the weekend ahead, including hearing from the PM next Monday about what is happening with Alert Levels in the Auckland region. A reminder that in the meantime we do remain at Alert Level 4 and so will be continuing with our distance learning programme. A sincere thanks from the staff and myself to all parents and caregivers for your support of your children who are at home learning – we know this is not easy with managing your own jobs and households but do thank you for your ongoing support.
Alert Level 3
We are also continuing to make plans for when the Prime Minister does announce a move to Alert Level 3.
If you have a child in your bubble who is in year 9 and 10 who has no adult at home for supervision (e.g. because all adults in the home are essential workers) then they are able to be supervised at school from 9 am to 3 pm at this level. If you are in this situation, please email [email protected] to book your child in for supervision. We will be back in touch with registered students once Alert Level 3 is announced.
