Latest Information for School Reopening 29th April

Kia ora koutou,

Tomorrow, Wednesday 29th, the Bay Academy will re-open under Level 3 Covid-19 conditions. We are expecting 6 students at school. All remaining students will be learning ONLINE, from home. We will have only 4 staff on site.

Teachers are well prepared to support online learning. We have supplied all students who requested them with school owned devices for learning. Students are expected to engage with the learning provided by teachers. Students who choose not to engage with learning online will be considered absent from school and will be marked as such. In this case, unless we hear from parents, children will be recorded on the roll as unjustified absence. 

The bus will run at the usual time tomorrow. The Bus company are monitoring the usage of buses and will update us daily on any changes to the timetable. I am required to complete a register of all students travelling on the bus each day.

Of paramount importance is health and safety. We are putting in place measures to ensure the safety of your children, of all staff and of visitors to the school. We acknowledge the implications of taking this threat too lightly, particularly in relation to our most at risk family and whānau.

We acknowledge that this might be a difficult time for your family and whānau and offer whatever assistance we can to make it easier if we possibly can.



Ngā mihinui kia koutou katoa

Stay safe and well.
