Hi Team 4
Just popping in to check you are all ok and coping with these uncertain times. Life is certainly throwing us some curve balls, and we all react in different ways, some good, some bad, some just plain meh!
Chris Hipkins, Minister of Education, has set a tentative date for us to return to school on the 15th of November. I’m not holding my breath! There is so much that needs to be done in all schools before they are ready for us to return safely back to, I just don’t know how we can get it done in time! Not to mention the Covid Case Numbers are going up and up on the daily. Sooooo I guess we will just continue on as we are at the moment and wait until closer to the date to see what actually happens!
In the meantime, the work is here for you, do what you can, those brains need oiling on the daily or they will be super rusty when we do return to school.
You can contact me via email or Google Hangouts if you need anything, even if it’s just a wee chat, always happy to listen to your good, your bad, and your ugly :)
Nga mihi nui - Ms H x
