7. If your son is unwell please do not send him to school - Any students that attend school with flu-like symptoms will be isolated and sent home as soon as is practical.  Please keep your son at home if he is unwell.
8. Update of contact details - Given current circumstances it is essential that we are able to get in contact with a parent or family member at all times.  On Monday 23 March all students will be given a copy of the details we currently hold for them to bring home for you to check.  Please check if the information is correct, sign and have your son return it Tuesday.  Otherwise, please update the information directly on the form, sign, and have your son return to his Whanau Teacher by Wednesday, 25 March.
9. Access to technology outside of school - The Ministry of Education has asked us to survey students about their access to technology outside of school in case there was the need to close school in the future.  There will be a simple survey with the details form asking about access to devices and the internet at home. Please support us with this data gathering by filling in the survey and having your son return it to their whanau teachers by Wednesday, 25 March.
