Kia Ora/Talofa/Malo/Bula – G’day!

The year has started off a little weird with the Corona Virus but don’t worry it will be OK !

So there are a number of things you can do to help keep us all safe but especially your parents and grandparents !!!! (from the www.health.govt.nz website)

Prevention – how to protect yourself and others

• Cough or sneeze into your elbow or by covering your mouth and nose with tissues.
• Put used tissues in the bin or a bag immediately.
• Wash your hands with soap and water often (for at least 20 seconds).
• Try to avoid close contact with people who are unwell.
• Don’t touch your eyes, nose or mouth if your hands are not clean.
• Avoid personal contact, such as kissing, sharing cups or food with sick people.
• Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces and objects, such as doorknobs.
• Stay home if you feel unwell.

** Call Healthline on 0800 358 5453 if you have any symptoms and have been recently been overseas or have been in close contact with someone confirmed with COVID-19. **

Be a role model for other kids – lots of kids have read the story Wonder or seen the movie Pay it Forward, but to actually practice this is a different matter so try to do this stuff without thinking about it. So, be nice to others, especially now with everybody a little anxious about corona virus

In the meantime we have lots of things to keep you busy. Check out the videos section and the activities section and have some fun at the same time!

The next four weeks in isolation might be a little tough ….but you know what? We can do this easy !

Kia Kaha NZ !
