Kia ora koutou
As anticipated, the Prime Minister has announced that Auckland will enter a level 4 lockdown for seven days from 11.59pm tonight, Tuesday 17th August.
This means we will move back to distance learning and no-one may enter the school site.
Whānau leaders will be in contact with students where and when necessary but at this stage, as we don’t know how long the lockdown will continue, students are to continue with their weekly homework drills using Reading Plus and Maths Buddy and/or complete work that has already been set.
We trust that no-one is affected health wise and reinforce the Prime Minister’s message to comply with the instructions given this evening.
