LockDown 2.0

After going into a snap lockdown last week due to COVID-19 being found in the community in Auckland, we swung back into action with home schooling. Mike and Debbie made the rounds last weekend delivering devices and teaching packs to homes (a loop covering over 150km).

​For the students of Lake Rotoiti School education doesn't stop with the schoolwork as the kids get out and about helping on farms, mustering sheep, building huts, feeding animals and exploring the Nelson Lakes environment.

So while we can't go skiing, our awesome school has made the news with our lockdown antics.

Skiing

So far this term we have managed two days of skiing at Rainbow Skifield. While the first day was grey and gloomy our second was spectacular. Blue skies and fresh powder...what more can you ask for.

While the whole mountain isn't quite open yet, the more experienced skiers have still been able to ski from the top down and work on their skills and our newer skiers have been working on their skills on the lower slopes.

This year we've implemented a new Health and Safety measure while skiing. Identifying children on the slopes has always been tricky, especially since we encourage the use of helmets. Instead of going traditional with hi-vis vests, we've supplied kids with bright green mohawks to apply to their helmets. There's no mistaking a child from Lake Rotoiti School now!
