[Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand @mentalhealthnz]

Today we had a media outlet on the phone encouraging us to speak out and say lockdown needed to end, suggesting we say it should end because of the toll they felt it was taking on people’s mental health. We declined.

It is with heavy hearts that we announce Sir Ken Robinson died peacefully yesterday, 21st August 2020, surrounded by family after a short battle with cancer.

We will be following up with a further update as we begin to follow Sir Ken’s wishes and honour his legacy.

Looking forward to further challenges and reflections!

As we go through our day today let's all consider how our conversations and ways of being are contributing to kindness or hatred

[Raewyn Ngaamo @Raewyn63]

Racism, hatred and violence do not spring out of nothing. They begin as thoughts, ideas and shared conversations. If you hear and see racist talk and actions and do nothing... you are part of the problem

We are in the business of justice #etūwhakatū

[PipWells @PipWells2]

Quality of the relationship with our teacher ... how will we really invest ?#etūwhakatū
