Covid-19 info for international learners
Updated 17 November 2020
All campuses are at Alert Level 1.
Remember our ten golden rules at Alert Level 1:
- If you are sick, stay home.
- If you have cold or flu symptoms, call your doctor.
- Wash your hands, wash your hands, wash your hands.
- Sneeze or cough into your elbow.
- General cleaning of high touch, hard surfaces.
- As a student, ensure you engage with the class register for every class - we need to be able to contact trace at the request of health officials.
- Continue to use the Government's NZ COVID Tracer App (QR codes are available at all campus entry points).
- If you have underlying health conditions, talk with your GP and formal leader about precautions.
- Stay vigilant.
- Be kind to others and to yourself.
The safety of our students, staff and wider community remains our top priority and student support is available for all of our learners.
