Hi everyone, <\/span><\/span><\/h3><\/div>
After the event on Friday, we hope you have all managed to have a safe and calm weekend with your family. We were highly impressed with the way the children coped with the lockdown on Friday. As a teaching team, our sole focus was to ensure the wellbeing of all our tamariki by keeping the children happy and calm. This included giving no information about the events that were unfolding across the city. Thank you for being so supportive and patient in this situation as we understand how challenging it must have been for you all. <\/span><\/span><\/div>
