Saturday 21 March Announcement and Implications （22/03/2020）
鸽子山小学针对2020年3月21日周六新西兰总理的全国电视讲话做出的更新管理通知（22/03/2020）
Kia ora Whanau,
亲爱的鸽子山小学的家人们大家好！
With Saturday’s announcement (LINK) that New Zealand has moved to Alert Level 2 – Reduce Contact for COVID-19 (LINK), people over 70 years of age and those with compromised immunity and certain existing medical conditions are asked to remain at home as much as they can from now on and avoid any non-essential travel. Staff, children and young people in schools and early learning services are therefore asked to follow this advice.
新西兰总理在周六宣布了全国进入新冠病毒二级预警 – 根据二级预警的政府官方建议，为减少与新冠病毒接触的机率，政府要求70岁以上的长者，以及本身患有免疫系统疾病或其他疾病的人士，在家中隔离及避免所有不必要的出行。因此，我们学校的员工，学生需要根据这项建议相应调整工作和学习。
We will be encouraging our staff who fall into this category to stay at home and if possible continue to support school curriculum or other school activities for example providing pastoral care by phone, marking, and lesson planning. This will inevitably have knock on effects on our day to day organisation, the way in which we are able to operate and usual teaching and learning in some areas. We are anticipating that we will have several staff away from school as a result and we will keep you informed as we endeavour to ensure school remains a place of routine, learning, joy and safety for our children.
我们将鼓励符合此项规定范围的我们的员工改为在家中继续办公。其工作范围包括为学校大纲教学或其他学校活动提供支持，比如提供电话联络，批改试卷或作业，制定教学计划等。这一调整将不可避免地在一定程度上影响到我们的日常教学和运营。我们预计会有几位员工因此需要暂时居家办公。学校的管理团队会尽我们所能确保学校的正常教学，学生安全和开心愉快的学校氛围。
We are requesting that ANY CHILDREN with conditions which fall into these categories, do not attend school due to their condition. Our community’s wellbeing is our main priority and we wish to minimise any risk to children, and adults, especially at this time and based on MOE guidance, those with compromised immunity or certain medical conditions, by ensuring they are not compromised at school.
我们再次强调，任何符合相关条件被要求隔离的学员，请留在家中不要返校。我们社区的健康福祉是学校现阶段工作的重中之重。校方希望尽我们所能照顾到我们的学生，家长和工作团队，特别是根据教育部发布的指南中指出的有需要被照顾到的免疫力相对较弱或有患有其他疾病的所有人，努力将风险降到最低。
In order to maintain accurate records we ask that you email our office on general@pmps.school.nz to report the absence with the specific reason, as stated here.
为了确保记录准确，学校要求所有请假的学员，以电子邮件形式书面说明具体请假原因，并发送电子邮件到general@pmps.school.nz
High Risk Individuals
高风险人群
While the majority of people who are confirmed with COVID-19 will experience mild to moderate symptoms, some individuals are at risk of more severe symptoms. Older people, particularly those with pre-existing health problems are more likely to get severe illness and are therefore considered at risk. High risk individuals also include people with underlying medical conditions, such as:
大多数已经确诊的病例出现轻度到中度的症状。个别病例有出现更严重的症状的风险。老年人，尤其是自身已经有其他健康问题的长者为易感人群。其他的高风险人群包括罹患以下疾病的个人：
· a compromised immune system 免疫系统疾病
· liver disease 肝病
· cancer 癌病
· kidney disease 肾病
· heart disease 心脏病
· diabetes mellitus 糖尿病
Further information is available at: LINK for help and advice; LINK for Ministry of Health. If you need any advice please email me on iand@pmps.school.nz and I will endeavour to support you. Irrespective of specific medical conditions, should you choose to keep your child at home, due to the uncertainty of this event I want you to know I understand and I respect your decisions at this time. In these instances please report your child’s absence and reason for absence to the office on general@pmps.school.nz.

Student-led conferences in April will be postponed and rearranged in Term 2. Apologies to those who have already booked interviews.
原定于今年4月举办的学生主导的学校，家长和学生的三方会谈，将会延期至第二学期。如果您已经上网预定时间，很抱歉给您带来不便。
What makes Pigeon Mountain School special is our sense of community and our 4 school values. It is crucial that we remain true to these values- Respect one another, take Responsibility for others around you who need support, Be Resilient for your children and family, and show Excellence at all times, particularly in these challenging times.
鸽子山小学之所以不同，是因为我们学校的价值观和对整个学校社区的集体感和归属感。时刻保持我们学校优秀的价值观在此刻尤为重要：请大家尊重彼此，为我们身边需要支持的人负责，对您的孩子和家庭持之以恒地有担当，在方方面面体现出我们的卓越。
Kia Kaha (stay strong)
保持坚强！
