PPTA STRIKE ACTION

We received official notification from the Ministry of Education
confirming that rostering home strike action will proceed for:
Year 9 students on Tuesday 14 October (Confirmed)
Year 10 students on Wednesday 15 October (Confirmed)
Year 11 and 12 students on Thursday 16 October (Confirmed)
Year 13 students on Friday 17 October (Confirmed)

We ask that students in the impacted year levels remain at home and use this time to:
Revise class work, plan or complete assessments, or catch up on any missed coursework.

For students who are unable to work from home, we will offer the option to be onsite, supervised by non-union staff who would otherwise have had senior classes.
If your child needs to attend school on their rostered home day, please notify Miss Madden at s.madden@bdsc.school.nz so we can plan accordingly.

We have been advised that further strike action is possible:
Full Strike Day (all year levels) Thursday 23 October
Co-curricular activities on Wednesday 29 October
Half day full strike (1.15 – 3.15pm) on Wednesday 5 November

We appreciate your understanding and support as we navigate these disruptions. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
