My children had the pleasure of attending one of the many online School Holiday Programs offered by Council. They were asked to dress up (captured in this photo) and had a ball sharing jokes and participating in some wonderful guessing games. Such a breath of fresh air for kids struggling to keep themselves active and engaged during lock down. By Jeff Harris

During lockdown, my daughter’s kindergarten teachers thoughtfully curated fortnightly packs of activities, including all the necessary materials and instructions, which they then delivered to our letterbox every second Monday evening for the remainder of Lockdown 1.0. Fast forward to Lockdown 2.0: The Lockening, and they have once again shown their commitment to our children by curating 6 weeks’ worth of activities for each child. In the photo you will see all the educators waiting in the alleyway outside the kinder during a designated pick-up time with bags of activities ready to be handed over to the guardians of each child.

During COVID my daughter missed out in her dance classes in the studio. She learned from videos supplied from the teachers via a Dropbox. It was getting harder to keep Molly motivated over this time as she is an only child. One of the weeks challenges set was to take some photos of you (the child) dancing. As a designer/photographer with no work during COVID it was our time to shine. We have limited garden space but wanted to catch the autumn vibe that we couldn’t get from the indoors.

I am a yoga and Pilates instructor, now I am teaching remotely via Zoom. Instead of being with people and sharing the class experience I am alone with the equipment and students in their lounge rooms. It is better than nothing but I do miss the connection of the shared experiences (at Vitalitymoves Studio, Healesville). By Michelle Redman
