As you will be aware our School is closed for Wednesday 18, Thursday 19 and Friday 20 August. We have been directed by the Secretary of Education not to be onsite, therefore no staff will be able to enter the school grounds. At Level 4 no one of the public is allowed on any school site. Due to the speed at which we went into this Lockdown signage has not been displayed reminding people of this.

Trust you are all Ok and are using this unscheduled family time to relax and enjoy each others company.
We will not be sending any learning home over the next three days please just read, play games, bake, build huts, get out on your bikes or on foot (but not too far) and create some art. We have done this together before and we can do it again!

Teachers are prepared if we need to be in lockdown longer.

The Ministry of Education provided very clear and helpful advice to us, last night and this morning and this will continue. No doubt in the next few days we will have a very clear picture of what is expected from all of us moving forward. We will keep you informed as soon as we know.

Please get in touch with teachers or myself if you need to. Email is best.
