PRODUCTION UPDATE

As you will be aware we had our 'Out of Time' Production scheduled to be performed next week. Unfortunately due to the latest COVID lockdown we are unable to perform this as it was planned. This is disappointing news for everyone involved. With so much work and effort having already been put into the planning and preparation of this production we see it as important that some form of this event goes ahead.

Planning a live event like this is impossible under Level 2 restrictions, with audience numbers being extremely limited. The length of this Level 2 lockdown is also a factor which makes it difficult to book and plan ahead as we look at venues. Because of this we have been forced to present our show in a different way.

The 'Out of Time' production will now be presented as a Film of the live stage show. Each of our class dance items will be filmed and we will share our story through the medium of a Movie Night. We are in the process of getting the details of this new format organised so please stay tuned for further details. If you have any questions please do contact the office, 

LIFE EDUCATION

Due to the recent Lockdown we have had to cancel the Life Education bus who was due to visit us during Term 3.  We have rescheduled this for next year.

SCHOLASTIC BOOK CLUB

Scholastic New Zealand’s Auckland warehouse is currently closed due to the COVID-19 lockdown.  Due to the lockdown, we have a number of unfulfilled orders stuck in our warehouse. As books are deemed non-essential items, we are not able to operate and ship any of these orders to school or homes.

I’m sure that you will understand that this situation is beyond our control, as it is for many New Zealand organisations and we thank you for your patience and understanding.
Rest assured, we will be prioritising these orders as soon as Auckland reaches level 3 and our fantastic team gets back to our warehouse. Auckland orders will be dispatched to schools as soon as Auckland reaches level 2 and students return to in-person learning.
