Our school is closely monitoring information being provided by Health, in regard to the Coronavirus.
There are no confirmed cases of 2019-nCoV in New Zealand to date but the likelihood of importing a case is high. The risk of an ongoing outbreak in New Zealand remains low, but the Ministry of Health is monitoring the situation closely. If any public health measures are needed for this virus, we will be advised and in turn pass that information on to our community.
Should the situation change, as we do with other infectious diseases such as measles, mumps and influenza, we will follow our pandemic plan for managing the illness
For those of you concerned about possible infection, the Ministry of Health has provided practical information on their website which we encourage you to read - Novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) guidance – Ministry of Health website
Included in there is some advice (for travellers) to help reduce the general risk of infection:
o avoiding very close contact with people showing symptoms
o frequently washing hands
o avoiding close contact with sick live farm animals or wild animals
o practicing cough etiquette (maintain distance, cover coughs and sneezes with disposable tissues or clothing, and wash hands).
The Ministry of Health will continue to update that content, as further information becomes available

Stride, Ride & Slide is a multisport event for children aged 2-6 years old, which gives pre-schoolers the opportunity to participate in their very own multisport event.

Children will have a blast running past the crowd, riding their bikes around the bends, and splashing onto the Slip and Slide, past the fire truck, to the finish line!
You can register your child/children online before 12.00pm Saturday 15 February or alternatively you are more than welcome to register on the day. On the day registrations will open from 9.00am. Those who have pre-registered go in the draw to win a spot prize!
