Week 4 Wednesday 3 March
Alert Level Three
Thank you to everyone for your support during alert level 3. This is a difficult time for everyone and by showing our values and supporting each other we are getting through this. If you or your whanau need support in any way please let us know.
On the Ministry of Health website there is a list of resources that is available to you about information and tools available to support your own and others’ mental wellbeing and where to get help if you need it. The web site is https://www.health.govt.nz/our-work/diseases-and-conditions/covid-19-novel-coronavirus/covid-19-health-advice-public/covid-19-mental-health-and-wellbeing-resources
On our distance learning site we have provided your child with enough independent work for them to do alongside you. We appreciate you too will likely be working from home, so we do not expect this to be followed to the tee. The timetables and activity ideas provided are optional so feel free to adapt or run with your own ideas.
The Ministry of Education Learning from Home Information website has information to support whanau and parents during distance learning. There are some helpful resources and tips.
