Thanks for joining us! Now is a crazy time in the world. The current virus pandemic sees a lot of people at home with their kids. Many may be overwhelmed with the thought of continuing their kids education for goodness knows how long. Me, I see this as an opportunity to get to know my kids better,what makes them tick, smile, sad, laugh and so much more. Also me being me I went into overdrive and thought it would be fun to document the ride, so I set up this page and an instagram account, I’ve never used either so thus begins my learning into the future. Our school will be providing kits on Monday. Earlier today my anxiety peaked wondering “how the hell am I going to teach my 3 kids at home when, like most parents, I can’t even get them to pick up a towel off the floor”. Well here’s the thing, wether we realise it or not, we are teaching them every day. I don’t know what will be in the packs but I think I will be viewing them as a launching pad for my own ideas. Our home will not be school, we won’t be fighting the kids to do do this, if it’s not working we will be creative and adapt. Our kids teachers have been amazing and supportive to date, and I have no doubt in my mind they will continue to be amazing and supportive through this. Remember that learning is a life journey not a race to the finish line. Support your kids now in all this craziness and the teaching experts will be there to pick up where our kids are at when the time comes. Stay safe, be kind, and remember to laugh and smile.
