ALERT LEVEL - 2

Kia ora koutou
 
It was a big relief to hear that we are moving back to Alert Level 2 as of Monday 08 March 2021. We look forward to welcoming all our learners and staff back to Pomaria School. Can I encourage you to please ensure that our learners return to school from Monday as it’s important to get them back into their daily routines as soon as possible. Thank you once more to our parents and caregivers for the support and resilience you have shown through Alert Level 3.  
 
Strong vigilance, good hygiene practices, coupled with the hard work our health authorities are doing to identify and support any confirmed cases and their close contacts remain important for all of us.
 
Just a reminder that while everyone is onsite at Alert Level 2, we must adhere to key health measures including:

• Good hand hygiene and cough and sneeze etiquette
• Staying away if sick
• Keeping the appropriate physical distance from others (in class this means no touching each other and keeping out of breathing distance)
• Cleaning and disinfecting our high touch surfaces daily
• Displaying QR code posters at our entrances and encouraging all of our community to download the NZ COVID Tracer App and use it if they come onsite
• No visitors are allowed on site without an appointment
• Keeping a visitor register for anyone who cannot use the app and for other visitors who come onsite for a period of time.

We know all these things will help to keep our community as safe as possible. Because of these measures, your child does not need to wear a face covering while at school. We will of course support them should they choose to do so.

School Lunches 

As we are moving into Level 2  we can confirm that school lunches will be delivered as per normal.

 
For those of you who might be finding things more difficult than usual, a reminder that there is a large range of support available for the community. We encourage you to go to covid19.govt.nz for more information, or get in touch and we will help you to find the information and support you need.
 

Together we will overcome COVID – 19
