Most classes to resume next week

Following the announcement that Auckland is moving to Level 2 from Monday, we’re delighted to be able to resume most coding classes next week.

Classes will re-start as follows:

  • Glendowie School: Wednesday 2 September
  • Saint Kentigern Boys’ School: Thursday 3 September
  • St Heliers Community Centre: Thursday 3 September

Churchill Park School has asked that we delay by a week, so the first class back there will be on Tuesday 8 September.

We will be contacting all parents directly to confirm the re-start dates. However, if you have any questions, please feel free get in touch, info@codechampions.nz

Level 2 guidelines

Please be aware that we will be operating under the school’s health and safety guidelines for Level 2. These include:

  • We will disinfect computers and high-touch areas (door handles, desktops, etc.) before class.
  • Each student must use hand sanitiser before entering the room.
  • Students will keep to the Ministry of Health’s recommended 1-metre physical distancing.
  • Anyone with cold or flu-like symptoms is asked not to attend.
  • Masks are not required but students can wear one if they choose.

Coding classes cancelled for next week, 18-20 August

The extension to the Level 3 lockdown period in Auckland means that there will be no coding classes next week, 18-20 August.

This affects the following:

  • Churchill Park School: Tuesday 18 August – cancelled
  • Glendowie School: Wednesday 19 August – cancelled
  • Saint Kentigern Boys’ School: Thursday 20 August – cancelled
  • St Heliers Community Centre: Thursday 20 August – cancelled

It’s likely that classes the week after, 25-27 August, will also not take place. However, the Government has said it will be reviewing the lockdown levels on Friday 21 August. We will make a decision as soon as we know the outcome of that review.

All parents of students in our classes will be contacted directly. If you don’t receive any communications from us – or have any questions – please let us know at info@codechampions.nz

We will be using the last week of term to re-schedule a catch-up class. For further missed classes, we will offer a credit or refund.

This affects the following:
