    There's no place like home


    Kia ora. Welcome to ANZAC day from my bubble.  This is a picture of my son-in-law, my daughter and my grand-daughter standing at dawn on ANZAC day.  Don't they look proud.  I hope wherever you were, you were able to spend some time thinking about the meaning about ANZAC day. Perhaps you also thought about how ANZAC day links to our Level 4 lockdown.  In our own way we are also at battle at the moment for the good of our country.  How do you think the next generations will view the actions and events of the moment?

    This week, we are going to start thinking about our new context; Unknown/Unexpected  What do these words mean to you and how do they link?  How do you cope when something unexpected or unknown occurs?  Do you have any strategies?  How can you make sure that you are not impacted negatively long term by unknown or unexpected events?  We are gong to look at how people around the world (and within our own country) have reacted to recent events - and whether these reactions are legal, just and show equality to all
