@zlivz And many parents are now working from home using the household device for work. It will not be practical for multiple children to also be trying to do work online. I was gutted that instead of getting readers/books from school I was told that my 3 children can all read on epic.

@zlivz Love this! It is one of kids Greening Taupo's nature connection ideas too. We're posting one idea each day on our Facebook page.

@zlivz What did you do this year?

@AngVerm007 @FlyAirNZ One of my students is currently collecting signatures on a petition asking Air NZ to use biodegradable lolly wrappers and to think about their use of single-use plastic.

@zlivz Where did you walk?

Staff wellbeing day. Coffee, cupcakes and a new card game with my children on a rainy day. Quality family time is so hard to come by during term time. Thank you Wairakei Primary School for giving us today. #wpstaupo

Great ideas for teachers and to show parents alike.

This is a great article about how true inquiry can take place in the classroom. It has got me excited about the term ahead. I wonder what direction our inquiry will end up taking? #wpstaupo https://t.co/oYS8MrUt4x

I love this... With a new job and trying to find good work/life balance I think this has some good reminders for me. #wpstaupo
