    Eddie Joyce says he’s met with parents and continues to hear stories of children still home due to this and others sitting in soiled clothes at school.

    Two weeks after Bay of Islands MHA Eddie Joyce wrote a letter to the Premier about the lack of student assistants at schools, he’s written another letter. Joyce says he’s met with parents and continues to hear stories of children still home due to this and others sitting in soiled clothes at school. He says these parents want a meeting with the Premier. Joyce says student assistant job postings came out too late and ignoring the issue will not make it go away.
