🤒 A Friendly Reminder – Keeping Our School Healthy

Kia ora whānau,

With colds, flu and tummy bugs still doing the rounds, we ask for your support in helping keep our students and staff healthy.

If your child is home sick with a cold or flu, please keep them home until they are well enough to fully participate in focused classroom learning. Being well enough to play or relax at home can look quite different from being ready for a full day of learning at school.

For vomiting or diarrhoea/stomach bugs, children must remain at home until they have been symptom-free for at least 48 hours after their last episode.

Please help us stick to these guidelines to reduce illness spreading through our school. This is particularly important for our staff too. With the shortage of relief teachers, we have very limited options for covering classes when teachers become unwell (if no teachers will, we would need to close the school).

We really appreciate your support in keeping sick children home until they have properly recovered — it helps protect our tamariki, staff and the smooth running of our school.

Thank you for supporting us! 💛
