Coming back to school on Monday 18th May 2020
Kia ora everyone,
We are very excited about seeing you on Monday! This is just a quick reminder about a couple of important things to ensure that we start back on Monday as smoothly as possible.
Please note that gates will be opened from 8.30am and (non teaching) staff will be at the gates to welcome children into school. Children will need to go straight to their classrooms to reconnect with their teacher and classmates.
Gates to use:
Ford Rd – Years 1-4 (Rooms 1-9)
Memorial Gates (corner of Ford Rd and Newbery St) Years 5-6 (Rooms 12-14)
Newbery St Gate - Years 7-8 (Rooms 17-19).
Entry for those who have siblings will be through the gate designated for the YOUNGEST child.
Any children on bikes, please use the vehicle entrance on Newbery St.
Please note that there is no vehicle access to Louisson Place due to road works and therefore NO ACCESS to our school through this gate until further notice.
School/MOE Device return
Can you please send any school/Ministry of Education provided devices back when your child returns to school. This will help provide us with the tools needed for a 'normal' school day. We would like all devices returned by Friday 22nd May.
Please ensure that all the equipment provided is returned, including the device, any cables and covers. If there is any damage or faults with the device please let us know when they are returned.
Thank you for helping with this important process.
We hope that you have a lovely weekend and we will see you on Monday morning at school.
Warm regards and ngā mihi,
Sally, Shevaun and The Team at Ōpāwa School
