Tauriko School’s sewerage system failed at the weekend and the school will close until further notice.
The school community will be notified this afternoon about whether students and staff will be able to return to the grounds on Tuesday.
“This is an unexpected failure as the school sewerage system is regularly checked and maintained,” principal Suzanne Billington said in a statement.
“Rest assured we are working extremely hard to [reopen]. Thank you all for your understanding.”
