Welcome to the CPPA's website

Christmas is coming! HI Nigel :-)

Earthquake Update

Once again Christchurch schools are in recovery mode, following the two quakes of Monday 13 June. At this stage we expect most schools will be re-opened, with a small number dealing with safety issues caused by rockfalls, or a lack of essential services.

The full list of schools and their status can be found on the Ministry of Education's website.

We have been humbled by the myriad offers of support from around the country, and overseas. If you are looking for ways to assist Canterbury schools, we deeply appreciate your concern. As part of relieving schools of the burden of managing these offers, we have asked the office of the New Zealand Principals' Federation to mange them on our behalf.

NZPF can be contacted on Ph 04 471 2338, or by emailing them at natoff@nzpf.ac.nz

Thank you for your concern and support. Believe me - we appreciate it.

The funds donated so far will be distributed shortly...

Schools should ensure that they have completed the on line survey - please contact Phil Harding for details.

The Executive is aware of the challenges schools badly affected by the earthquake are facing. Two retired principals are working to provide support, and communication between those schools and the Ministry of Education.
