A little bit about me...
Hi there. I’m Cecelia from Little Manly. I’m 58. I love long walks/runs with my dog Jett who turns 10 in November. He’s my rescue dog and my best buddy and is extremely fit and has his own special 2 seater sofa. I enjoy my cottage garden and plants around my water tank. I have a small lawn mowing round and mow my neighbors lawn across the road for free as he is on a pension. I have a 50th Anniversary Model 6 speed manual Corvette and we also have a Dodge Challenger 1972. I have an old cat that i adopted when he was 12 and now is nearly 20 and is deaf and I’m sure he has dementia lol 🤣. I love this area and the surrounding beaches and local cafes and restaurants. I wish everyone all the best and look after each other wherever you live.
Cheers 🥂 Cecelia
Poll: Have you ever been bullied?
People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.
This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
