Tiny house builders have had a surge in interest during the lockdown, some from families that are 'herding'
During COVID-19 lockdowns overseas, we've seen someone run a half marathon on a tiny balcony and the distance of Everest up and down a staircase. What will we see next in New Zealand!?

We are an active country and we like to get outdoors in our beautiful landscapes. But we know that right now we must #stayhomesavelives. Here is a way that you can still keep active in your own home, and still enjoy the beautiful scenery that we have here in Aotearoa! ? #RedCrossVirtualTour

It occurs to me that this is a moment when we can all be part of a solution. Many, many families are not on any wages until the adults can return to work. The country can’t actually support them forever. Even with that support they are struggling. Some aren’t even eligible to be supported if they were earning under the table prior to lockdown. It’s really, really big picture stuff. It’s not happening tomorrow and only if the numbers indicate a sufficient lack of community transmission. But people are scared about what it would mean putting larger groups of children together for care and supervision. Instead of removing options from people who desperately need to be back at work or must be back at work, or our economy needs them to be back at work; let’s problem solve and operate as a cohesive community instead. Are you able to continue to be home with your own children? The PM said we could extend our bubbles a little. How’s about looking around your circle of contacts at who needs to leave their homes to work, extend your bubble to them and offer to take their children when needed. Fewer people then needing schools and ECEs for care and supervision in Level 3. Company for your kids and they can do their distance learning together if applicable. I’m planning to contact my kids’ friends to offer as I know I’m working at home for the next six weeks. Do I fancy the idea of more noise and responsibilities in the house beyond my own family? Not really. But it’ll help them and help get the country going again. I’m not an essential worker but I can help one out. This is the time to make sacrifices and do the right thing if you are in a position to do so. I don’t know the numbers involved but wouldn’t it be awesome if every family who can be home, helped one other family and it then turned out that no centres at any level were needed!
The dedication and sacrifice of New Zealand and Australia's servicemen and women are testament to the Anzac spirit and ability to adapt in times of great crisis.

Although we cannot commemorate Anzac Day with the traditional services and parades this year, we know many New Zealanders will want to mark the occasion from home.
This new webpage brings you a range of ways to commemorate and remember from your bubble. We hope you’ll join us on this significant day in New Zealand’s history.
Reminder, we are still doing assessments via email!! Hand wove this riempie seat before lockdown. Quite a relaxing process once you get into rhythm 🍃

While we are there maybe we can sweep the footpaths clear of leaves etc that are slippery to walk on. What about looking at the drains outside your house & clearing them as well. Once we get into the habit maybe it will continue after the lock-down.
