Balmac Covid Update

Kia ora tatou katoa

As you might expect, we are experiencing higher than usual staff and student absence at the moment.

Because of this, we have adjusted our programmes to utilise our technology staff in classrooms. It has also been necessary to split some classes because of a lack of relievers.

As much as possible we are "business as usual" and our continued focus is to keep school functioning and people healthy. Staff and students are all doing their bit to ensure this happens!

A reminder that next week will look a little different but for a different reason. Monday is Otago Anniversary Day and Tuesday is a Teacher Only Day. I hope you all enjoy the long weekend and manage to get some good family time.

Thanks again for your support through these uncertain times. Hopefully we are nearing some sort of peak and can look forward to simpler times ahead!
