School To Reopen on Monday

We are all looking forward to school reopening on Monday March 21st at 9:00am.
Our classrooms have been thoroughly checked by several teams of structural engineers and deemed to be undamaged and safe for us to return to.
Our new buildings especially, stood up to the shaking extremely well.


On Monday we also welcome tamariki and staff from Te Waka Huruhurumanu ki Ōtautahi, a local pre-school, who will be sharing our site until they again have access to their own buildings which are located just within the cordoned off CBD.


We have also had to lose two of our relocatable classrooms which were not being used for regular class programmes. These classrooms have been moved to Cashmere High School. Pupils from Linwood College will be hosted at Cashmere High School in the afternoons while their school is repaired so some of our ex-pupils will recognise the classrooms when they commence there, one of which has a graphic reminder of where it has come from on its end wall!
Preparing the classroom for removal.

This classroom takes with it a graphic memory of Woolston School.
