A Message from the Principal
Dear Parents
I hope that you all enjoyed a family friendly long weekend.
Today we have implemented our Alert Level 2 reviewed protocols. These were sent out to the community on Monday. The change in the protocols mirror the government’s lessening of requirements.
Please remember to fill in the contact tracing form associated with this QR code
or at: Kohimarama School Contact Tracing
The school contact tracing form is a requirement for us to record all those who enter our site. This is different from the Government’s contact tracing app which does not provide us with the information that we need to comply with our school tracking requirements.
For those who have students attending activities before and/or after school, we have been in contact with each of the providers of these classes in order to ensure that they meet the Kohimarama School requirements in respect to managing the COVID 19 Pandemic requirements. This includes hygiene, cleaning and contact tracing requirements.
If your child(ren) needs to access the school before 8.30am and after 3.00pm to attend a class then you may escort them to the Hall. If you come on site to collect your children then it is important that you complete the contact tracing form via the QR code. As always we prefer that you do not drive into school close to entry and exit times.

Childrens Community Dental Clinic
During COVID-19 Alert Level 2, the Children’s Community Dental Service has reopened some of its clinics
for children with urgent dental care needs.
We will be in contact with you if your child requires an urgent appointment.
Alternatively, if your child is in pain, or you have immediate concerns about their teeth, please phone 0800
TALK TEETH to speak with one of our therapists.
We are not able to offer routine appointments just yet, but we will let you know as soon as this changes.
This means that your child’s routine appointment may be delayed.
