Christchurch Earthquake – Schools Update

9:20pm Tuesday 7 September.




The Christchurch City Council Controller is advising that schools in Christchurch will remain closed tomorrow as there is concern around the structural integrity of some of the buildings.



Schools in Christchurch may re-open on Thursday depending on individual decisions by the Board of Trustees for each school. Those boards must consider the safety of opening their own schools.



In the Selwyn and Waimakariri districts some schools may be open from tomorrow (Wednesday) depending on decisions made by each Board of Trustees.



Parents should contact their own schools for specific information.
