Lockdown Update

Mon Mar 13 03:53pm

Kia ora all,

This afternoon the school received an aggressive and threatening phone call. We immediately followed our procedures and went into Lockdown.  Once police arrived, further investigated and secured the grounds, we were able to lift the lockdown.  The police are satisfied that there is no further threat or concern for the school and we can operate as per usual.  

We trust you received our update every 15 minutes on the School App.  This is a  timely reminder to check you have the School App downloaded to your phone, your phone numbers and email details updated.  If you need help with any of this, please contact the office. 

I am very proud of our children and staff and particularly how diligent they were with following our lockdown procedures.  We talked to the children this afternoon to update them with what was happening and reassure them  that they were safe and ok.  Your children may like to talk about what happened further with you this afternoon.  Please continue to reassure them and if there is anything further we can do to support, please let us know. 

Ngā mihi nui,

Carla Veldman / Principal  
Pinehill School 

Pinehill School is all clear.
