Separately, The University of Auckland says it is not aware of any more of its students testing positive for the virus.
A student at one of the university’s halls of residence tested positive and anyone in the Whitaker and Waipārūrū Halls was told to isolate and get tested.
The university says pop-up testing centres there over the weekend have now been removed.
It understands all students were tested and so far they have not been advised of any more cases.
Meanwhile, there are 41 new cases of Covid-19 in the community today, a day after the country’s lockdown was extended.
New Zealand is staying in alert level 4 lockdown until at least midnight on Friday, and Auckland until at least midnight on Tuesday.
