Kia ora koutou, e Laidlaw whānau,

With tonight’s announcement of community spread of COVID-19 in Auckland, and the move to Level 3 from midday in Auckland (and Level 2 around the rest of the country), we are taking the following actions:

• Our Auckland campuses (Henderson and Manukau) will be closed for at least the remainder of the week, and classes in Auckland this week are cancelled.

• Christchurch-only classes (i.e. not video-conferenced, or non-Christchurch-based lecturers) are continuing where possible, and the campus will remain open, but look for individual communication from your lecturers. 


If you are concerned for your health, please stay at home. Please keep an eye out for communications from your lecturers.

Updates will be posted here.

As the situation becomes clearer, we will be updating you as we are able. 

Please reach out to our Student Support team if you need.

As Jesus promised us in John 14: Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. 
 Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

Ngā mihi,

Roshan
