🛑STOP Swapping / Lending / Gifting

Danni from Westmere

Hi neighbours

Hi neighbours

I’m concerned about the continued swapping / gifting / lending of items that’s happening at the moment during the lock down.

We cannot do this during lock down. We cannot have any contact with people and their items that are outside of our bubble during this period.

The virus sits on surfaces, and if it’s on an item that we have gifted someone then that family / person may become infected. It’s too big of a risk. How would we feel if we infected a family and one of them died?

We all need to be mindful about this because if NZ doesn’t get in front of this during the lock down, we will be closed for longer and more jobs will be lost, and potentially will lose lives. The impacts will be even greater than they are now.

Please stay safe everyone and please keep everyone else safe.

Thanks
Danni

Good news.
We have managed to go remote with our NZQA fulltime courses! NZSFWLive is our new online learning platform where our tutors live-stream their classes to students at home. The cookery students have been supplied with ingredients, and in some cases, bowls, trays, sieves and pots, so that they watch the demonstration and then prepare it themselves at home. They then upload a photo of what’s cooked. We are using Google Classrooms and Hangouts to connect.
Here is Chef Finn preparing a cheese soufflé. Click here for the recipe to have a go yourself.

During the #lockdown our premises will remain closed but you can contact us on admin@foodandwine.co.nz

FREE ITEMS ENDANGERING LIFES

Don from Westmere

Do u realize giving free stuff away in this period is endangering the growth of this virus; People are supposed to be avoiding the bubble burst & contact / Wait till the 4 week level is over, don't wreck it for every other person.

I know the temptation is huge for a needy item but one has to be so careful now, once u have a foreign item u have to treat it like a new 4 weeks period as I could potentially have the virus attached to past on to someone else. I would hate to think this site has passed on a unwitting bug to someone. Suggest everybody HOLDS OFF BUY/SELL DEALS until this is over. It would be nice to think we can survive this or it could go on for months. Note, couriers are banned from picking anything but Medical items now .
