The slideshow that is embedded on this page has many links to How to Videos that will help you and your children navigate their way.

There is an option in here to book in for some google meets on Monday if you would like more information. Check out Slide 14 for the link to the form.

We have created a suggested structure for you to use at home - I say suggested because we all know every house will be different and some days it will work and some days it won’t and that’s ok.

Structure is good - as is setting routines if you can - but we don’t want this to cause stress for anyone. We also know that technology doesn’t always work when you need it to - there will be glitches - and that’s ok.

Remember that we are all learning and we will try to provide answers as best we can.

We also know that what you have been doing with your children over the last two weeks has been amazing and they have been learning at home right through this time.

It’s ok to carry on with all of the things you have been doing and start to integrate some of things that we have on offer as well.

Noho ora mai - Stay well

Mā te Atua koutou katoa e tiaki, e manaaki.

May God bless and protect and care for you all.
