Seven Auckland schools are now linked with positive cases of COVID-19 with almost 11,000 total students being treated as close contacts.
As the number of community cases continues to rise daily, students of the seven colleges have been advised to isolate themselves for two weeks and get tested.
The colleges are McAuley High School, Avondale College, Northcote College, Lynfield College, Western Springs College, Pukekohe College and De La Salle College.
To talk to us about how the board of trustees at De La Salle College is dealing with the community outbreak we have on the line this morning the Deputy Chair of De La Salle College Board of Trustees Falaniko Tominiko.
