School holidays brought forward

Mary Miller —

We are starting to receive information now from the Ministry of Education. We have been advised that school holidays are being brought forward. Holidays will now begin from Monday, 30 March, 2020 to Tuesday, 14 April, 2020 inclusive (a reminder that the Tuesday after Easter Monday is always a closed day for schools).

At the end of the school holidays, schools will be open for distance learning but not physically open for staff to work at the schools.

Please note the instruction to stay home (Alert Level 4) will continue beyond the new school holiday period but schools will be technically open for distance instruction. Teachers will be working offsite.
