You may have seen in the media talk of a NZEI Teacher Union member strike on Thursday 23rd October. This is not yet official as the formal notice has not been presented to School Boards but an informal notice has been made.
If the strike day does proceed then Albany Primary School will be closed on this day due to the number of staff involved.
If needed, Kelly Club advise that they will be open for this day for supervision.
We will keep you updated.

WELCOME TO ALBANY PRIMARY SCHOOL
We are a school with a rich history and an exciting future. We pride ourselves on the happy, friendly and safe environment that is evident from the moment you enter our grounds. Learning is not silent at our school but shouts with curiosity and challenge.
Our goal is to ensure that your child is given every opportunity possible to develop and grow through our inclusive and holistic curriculum.
The school's vision "where learning makes a difference" is the foundation for all we do.
Our REACH values of Respect (Whakaute), Excellence (Kairangi), Aroha and Caring, Collaboration (Mahi tahi), and Honesty (Ngākaupono) are modelled and reinforced by the teachers as essential qualities that we all strive for in our learning community.
Albany Primary School belongs to a Community of Learning (COL)
