Kia ora whānau

As you will have heard, Auckland will continue to stay in Level Four lockdown until 11.59pm on Tuesday 31st August. As I stated in yesterday’s update our focus is now on establishing routines and expectations – its time to keep on keeping on!

NCEA Updates

The Ministry of Education has signalled that if the lockdown is prolonged that NCEA will be adapted as per last year. I will keep you posted as soon as we hear anything definite. In the meantime it is important that our learners continue to complete their NCEA assessments as best they can. 

This Friday is a midterm break

This Friday was scheduled to be a midterm break and we have decided to hold to this. In lockdown this means that teachers won’t be available online on Friday, however there is nothing stopping our young people accessing Google Classroom and continuing to complete their work. Alternatively, students may like to take this opportunity to get offline and refresh – it is important that we all prepare for a bit of a marathon rather than a sprint!

And again, thank you!

Thanks again to our students and whanau for continuing to work with us. We have had fantastic rates of engagement in these past few days and we look forward to having this continue. I recognise that life in lockdown can be a challenging juggling act, and I  encourage any of our young people to reach out should they need further support. 

And remember…

Be kind.

Stay safe.

Stay home.

Wear a mask if going out!

We got this team!!
