Auckland retirement village residents sew hundreds of masks in lockdown
A band of retirees have been busy over lockdown sewing 300 masks in just two weeks.
Five residents of Metlifecare’s Crestwood retirement village in New Lynn were concerned for the safety of their peers, so they decided to put their decades of experience with the needle and fabric to good use.
Now all the retirement residents are masked up, and the retirees are continuing to sew masks for charity.
Under alert level 2 lockdown in Auckland people are required to wear masks on public transport, and encouraged to wear them at all times when outside.
Do you have your mask ready for when lockdown laws are relaxed on Monday?

Kaitiakitanga (Guardianship and Stewardship) - Day 17
Tāne’s Gift of the Forest
Tāne planted the great forests and entrusted their care to humankind, warnihonoringto take only what was needed and to replenish what was used.
He sent the birds to teach people balance, showing them how each creature contributed to the wellbeing of the environment.
When people acted as kaitiaki (guardians), the land thrived; when they were careless, the land suffered.
Moral: Guardianship of the land ensures that future generations can thrive, honoring the gifts of nature.
