Week 6 - Welcome back to School

Yahoo we can be back at school!

To start we want to thank all the parents and whanau who have supported their children with the work we have provided.  We have loved seeing all the posts on Edcua about all the adventures you have completed throughout lockdown.  You have all done an amazing job. You have deserved a well-earned coffee break.


We are ready for the start on Monday and have set up sanitiser stations in the classrooms along with soap dispensers and paper towels. Staff will be ensuring that door handles, hard surfaces, and class equipment will be sanitised periodically throughout the day. All the classrooms have been cleaned over the lockdown period.  At Level 2 the message is to send your kids to school unless you have good reason to keep them home. So the message is clear: Send your kids back to school.

We do ask that if your child is unwell that you do not send them to school. It is important that your child has totally recovered before they are sent back to school. It is expected that a child would be away for at least 48 hours if they have been unwell. Also if your child becomes unwell at school the office will notify you and you will need to collect ASAP.


What will school look like under Alert Level 2?
Drop off 8:45-9:00 
We encourage parents to drop their children at the gate and not enter the school grounds. Parents are advised they must not enter any classrooms. If you need to contact your child’s teacher please email, text or a written message can come with your child.
Any students who come to school after 9am will need to come in via the Carnot Street entrance and be accompanied by an adult when they report to the School Office.
Pickup 2:30-2:45
You can collect your child from the classroom at the end of the day, you will need to scan a QR code to enter the school or have your photo taken.  This is so the school has a record of who has been on sight for contact tracing. If you would like to collect your child from a gate please let us know what gate you will collect them from as a teacher will bring them over at 2:30 pm.

All children need to have a drink bottle as the drinking fountains are still not available to use.  
Pita Pit and sausage sizzle will begin this week.

All the teachers are so excited to have your children back at school on Monday. Learning will continue as usual within our classrooms.
