COVID-19 Tumuaki update for R膩tu 14 Mahuru
Ata m膩rie ki a koutou.
Nau mai, haere mai ki te Wiki o te reo M膩ori.
As announced by the Prime Minister yesterday we will be remaining at Alert Level 4 for the next week and then moving ‘in principle’ to Alert Level 3 at 11.59 pm on Tuesday. This will be confirmed in a national briefing on Monday. This means we are planning for a return to school on Wednesday or Thursday of next week (this is dependent on Ministry of Education guidelines which should come out tomorrow).
Thank you to those who have emailed [email protected] to indicate you have a child in Year 9 or 10 who requires supervision when we move to Alert Level 3. We do want to be in a position to support our parents who are essential workers in this way so please do email this address if supervision is required.
A warm welcome to Whaea Katarena who joins our Social Sciences department this week. You can see her Pepeha below:
