When social distancing makes things closer

Todd Niall Reporter from Auckland Stuff

Hi Neighbours, Social distancing is the new buzzword, but out in semi-rural areas the end result seems to be that people are "closer". Do you notice a greater enjoyment in random social greetings? Read the column below:

STOP! Please don't flush that wet-wipe

Laura from Torbay - Long Bay

Our beautiful and friendly Delta has flown away and was last seen around Danbury Road in Torbay. She can fly well so may be anywhere. We are in Weatherly Road in Torbay (near Geoffrey Road) so if everyone could please check their gardens and trees (she could be hiding in the branches) and let us know if you have seen her. If you do see her, she could come to you if you crook your finger and offer to scratch the back of her head. She is our "baby", so please help us to get her home. Thank you.

Hi neighbours. Remember police Sergeant Guy Baldwin, who rose to fame in 2009 for his expression "always blow on the pie"?
Well he's back, this time with a message for Kiwis: Stay home and help break the chain of coronavirus.
"This thing (coronavirus) is an invisible dragon. Please, stay home. Let's break the chain and save lives. If we follow the rules, we'll end this lockdown sooner. Let's slay this dragon, and get back to doing the things we love, like eating pies."

If you are one of those and interested in starting something new have you considered an online business?
You don't need stock and you don't need a capital outlay. All you need is an Internet connection, a computer and a willingness to learn and apply what you learn.
PLEASE NOTE: This is not a get rich quick scheme - it is a sustainable business that needs application.
Free to look for as long as you want.

Finding our Alert Level 4 routine

New Zealand Government

This week sees us all getting used to living at Alert Level 4. For this to work, we must all stick to the plan.

This week sees us all getting used to living at Alert Level 4. For this to work, we must all stick to the plan.

Stay home. It WILL save lives.
Let’s all remember why we are taking such extreme measures.
Staying home won’t always be easy. But the evidence tells us this is the best way to save the lives of other New Zealanders.

Finding our routines
It will take some time to build up new daily routines. That’s to be expected. We all need to be gentle with ourselves, and accept that things could be difficult for a while as we learn to adjust.

Looking after ourselves and others
Don’t forget to take time to look after yourself, and also to check-in on others. Asking someone how they are feeling is a good way to connect and show that you care.

We all need to stick to the plan
For this to work, and the effort we are all making to be worth it, we all need to stick to the plan, all the time. No exceptions.

Don’t move around
The virus is spread by us. So we all need to avoid moving around as much as possible. If you do go out for exercise or to get essential supplies, stay local. This is incredibly important. Don’t move between different areas.

Thank you for doing your bit
A massive thank you to everyone for working so hard to slow the spread of COVID-19. Together, we can and will save lives.

All Tutors with EducateMaths have their students changed over to online conference sessions. There are no - in a physical room maths sessions currently.



With this 'lock down' and given the financial uncertainty, EducateMaths tutors have agreed to offer Maths Conference tutorials at significantly reduced fees. This has been well received by parents. Parents will receive a 1 hour break from their child and their child will receive maths learning at their child's level.



Please find below the certificate winners for Week 8.
