Students from Christchurch will be scattered throughout the country

Western Bay principals are being urged to open their doors to the Christchurch students coming to the area to escape the aftermath of last Tuesday's earthquake.

It would appear that students from Christchurch will be scattered throughout the country this coming week as they disperse to family and friends.
Rumour has it that MathsBuddies is offering to enrol all Chch students from Year 4-13 free from the remainder of this term. The hope is that through its online tutorials and activities, set by their original teachers, will mean little ground in their learning will be lost.  Find out more...

Further information is available on accepting students from the earthquake zone.

Eighteen state schools, 11 state-integrated schools and five independent schools reported significant damage.
But some schools in Christchurch are likely to open shortly. Tolley said those with minor damage could reopen this week, if school infrastructure, road access and staff were in place.

We wish all students, their parents and their teachers well for the weeks ahead.
