Life in Lockdown

Today marks the 33rd day of New Zealand being in lockdown. At 11.59pm tonight we will move into alert level 3. Some things will change, but for most people things will still look pretty similar at this new alert level.

There have been a lot stories about what people have been doing with their time to help keep busy - some learning new skills, some refining their trick shots, others enjoying quality family time. With that in mind, what do you think has been the BEST thing about being in lockdown?

Leave a comment below and let us know what you think is the best part about being in lockdown.

      I agree it has been great being able to get outside and do some exercise - especially when it's been sunny! What mountain have you being going up? We've gone for lots of runs and walks around our neighbourhood.

    1. Hi Selui!

      Great to hear that you are enjoying spending so much time with your family and doing some school activities. How many hours a day do you spend on your learning?

    1. Hi Miraj,

      remember to check your comments before you post them. Why is playing on your trampoline the best thing about being in lockdown?

    1. Hi Marwah,

      remember to check your comments before you post them. I'm wondering if you could share some of your artistic creations on your blog. It would be awesome to see what you have been working on and I'm sure Mrs Macdonald would love to see them too!

    1. Talofa lava Gabriella,

      That's lovely to hear that you are enjoying this opportunity to have some quality time with my family. I miss seeing my parents but I am very thankful that we can video chat so I get to see them (it's still not the same as being with them in person though!) What kinds of things have you been doing as a family?

    1. Hi Hasti,

      What kinds of things have you been baking? I have made a lime and coconut cake and some scones. It took us a couple of weeks but we finally managed to find some flour at the supermarket! I'm also going to try bake the afghans that Selui gave us the recipe for!
