Coronavirus: Nearby schools react to Covid-19 case at West Auckland high school

Danielle Clent Reporter from Western Leader

Hi neighbours, a student at a West Auckland primary school has been identified as a close contact of a coronavirus case.
It comes after a student at nearby St Dominic’s Catholic College tested positive for the virus. The girls-only school on Rathgar Rd in Henderson is surrounded by a number of other schools, including Liston College and Waitākere College on the same street.

Do you have children who attend these schools? Are you concerned? Tell us in the comments below.

welcome (& help) new neighbour

Julia from Henderson

kia ora lovely neighbours

as some of you know, I love the marketplace on here - (you know people are LOCAL, easy to collect) - and meet such lovely neighbours in the process.

I did not click on the 'ad' for "free house hold stuff" - as I though were GIVING away stuff - and little I need right now.

oh when I did - a very easy mistake to make - ASKING for - not giving away

Amanda & her 2 sons (12 & 16) have just moved here, out west, from Wellington - and looking for a helping hand

so generous neighbours - is there anything surplus to your requirement that you can help Amanda with?

"Hi me an my two sons have just relocated to Glen Eden from Wellington an are looking for few things for our house kitchen table an chairs pots an pans an draws cabinets etc thank you"

"16 and 12 and we are needing dinning table and chairs vacuum kitchen stuff and draws for boys rooms"

I think I have a spare large frying pan - but can't help with the rest....

if you can't help, all good - just if you don't ask, you don't get - (so see Amanda's ad - in Marketplace - under "free house hold stuff" - for her contact info)

peace & love - arohanui
