2020 started off as a very exciting year for me! It was the big 40th birthday, Lydia my daughter turned 10 and Mb ( The husband) also turned 40! The start of the year was going well, after a lovely summer break it was a nice smooth transition back to school.
As the news unfolded over the course of the term, we realised that things would be about to change! So, here we are 7 weeks later.... 4 weeks of full lock down and another 3 weeks of home learning. To be honest I have enjoyed being at home with the family, working from home has suited me ha ha! I have missed the hustle and bustle of school and teaching music from a distance is not that exciting!!
I have really been proud of how the kids have tackled online learning, it was really cool having google meets and being able to talk online and catch up!
For us at Hornby High School we were ahead of the game with our google sites. We already have our curriculum on our sites so transitioning into full online learning was an easier process.
We are now in the final week of our learning from home. Whilst I am looking forward to coming back to school I will miss being able to work when I went and get up when I want to! Also, going back to going to the loo when the bell rings will be challenging ha ha!
I feel incredibly lucky to have spent this time with my whanau, to have escaped COVID-19 and remained healthy and to be returning to a job that I love. Many have not been so lucky.
