We know some families in our community may be finding it difficult to access food and essential items such as medicine. The attached document provides information on how to access food or essential items and summarises the support systems that are available, including financial help to buy food. There is also some additional information attached specific to West Auckland. Please do take care and let us know how we can best support you and your whānau. 

You can go to the COVID19.govt.nz website if you would like more information on Alert Level 4 requirements. 

As always, please let us know if there is anything you need to support you and your children during this time.
