Today marks the first time I have been able to return to school since the country went into Alert Level 4 on 26 March.

How wonderful it was to celebrate the success of two of our students last Friday night at the annual Race Unity Speech regional competition.

It is wonderful to be getting out of Alert Level 4 and moving towards being back learning at school again.

Warm Pasifika Greetings to all our families of Otago Girls' High School.

You’re not alone.

Over the Level 4 lock-down period, the prefect team has been working together to figure out if and how we can help the members of the Otago Girls' community keep their mental health positive.
