UPDATE FOR WEEK ENDING 24TH OCTOBER
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 still 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.
We will advise parents as soon as this has been confirmed, latest being Monday 20th. Kelly Club advise that they will be open for this day for supervision – their booking system will open on Monday 20th should this be required.
