The Prime Minister has announced tonight that Auckland will return to Covid Alert Level 3 from tomorrow until at least Friday night.
Under this Alert Level, students should not come to school tomorrow, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday but should be kept at home if at all possible.
The Ministry of Health's message is very clear, 'If you can keep your children at home do so'. Schools will only be a place for Year 9 and 10 children whose parents/caregivers cannot work from home.
It is unfortunate that we have to move back in this direction after so long without restrictions and with school happening normally. However, we appreciate that this is a bold step we need to do to protect our community and economy. We hope it will be short lived and that school can resume very soon
As a college we will be working through how we continue to support student learning on-line and will give you an update on this later in the week.
In the mean time, all the best to you all and to your families and we hope that this will pass soon
