Dear Parents, 

I trust you have caught up with the news that Auckland is returning to Alert Level 3 from 11.59 pm, Tuesday 21 September. Following the government’s Alert Level 3 procedures, the school is open to receive a limited number of students of parents who are essential workers and cannot secure alternative suitable care options from Wednesday, 23 September.  Please complete this link if you are an essential worker and your children require supervision for this week and next. Please note that you cannot drop your child at school if you have not registered at least 12 hours before the required supervision day.
