PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE
(email sent to the school community earlier today)
23 June 2026
Dear Parents
As you will be aware a number of NZ educational institutions have received an
anonymous bomb threat today.
Our school received an email through the spam folder, most likely from an international source. The school contacted the police and followed their guidelines. They advised us to make a self assessment.
We have made an assessment and determined that the school will remain open.
However if you wish to collect your child you are welcome to do so.
The school day will end as normal at 2:50 pm.
Should you have any questions please feel free to get in touch.
Ka manaakitia e te Atua
Alister Bridgman
Principal
