Covid testing, isolation and notification information

Testing

If your daughter is unwell, please keep her home and test for Covid-19 as necessary. She will need to remain at home while awaiting her test results. Email attendance@westlakegirls.school.nz as per usual in this instance.

Positive result

If your daughter receives a positive test result, please email Covid-report@westlakegirls.school.nz immediately. At this point we would be guided by the Ministry of Education on a case-by-case basis, and would communicate to our staff, student and parent community accordingly.

If your daughter is unwell, or required to isolate, she would be able to continue her studies by accessing learning resources in Google Classrooms (if well enough).

Wednesday March 29th - PPTA Industrial Action

The PPTA have advised that Wednesday March 29th has been scheduled as a second day for industrial action for secondary school teachers. With a number of staff away, we will be unable to open for instruction on Wednesday 29th March. We understand that this is short notice and appreciate the difficulties this will place on you. However, it is vital that we support our teachers in their claim to show the government how important they are to us.
