Closure Notice
The Ministry of Education has informed schools that school holidays have been altered. They now begin on Monday 30th March and end on Tuesday 14th April. At the end of the school holidays, school will be open for distance learning but not physically open. Subject teachers of all Seniors and Year 7-10 Maths, English, Science and Social Science will email parents by Wednesday evening to inform them of the expectations of students for this week. They will email again on or before Tuesday 14th April to inform parents about the online learning for the period of time after the holidays but before face to face teaching resumes.
I am very proud of the staff at Menzies College, they are a hardworking bunch who firmly keep students at the centre of all they do. They have worked hard over the last week to prepare for this eventuality. Issuing of Chromebooks went smoothly and students have had instruction on how to access Google Classrooms. Physical material has been made available to students who require it. Please be aware that Teachers are also parents, caregivers and humans. Don’t place unrealistic expectations on them, they are working from home for the last part of this week and after the holidays but as of Saturday they are on holiday.
Thank you for continuing to be a wonderfully supportive community, keep safe, be kind and where you can spread joy.
