I am inviting children to say thank you to those providing essential services by producing art championing the work of our doctors, nurses, garbage collectors, supermarket and pharmacy workers and the many others in a way that is consistent and safe with the “stay home save lives” message.
The art is to be of anybody doing essential work, whether it be on the frontline in our hospitals, our caregivers at home, our emergency services or the cleaners, lab technicians, supermarket workers, truck drivers, port workers and farmers who are keeping us safe and well.
Please photograph your art and email to me at parmjeet.parmar@parliament.govt.nz.
Shortlisted art (ages 1 to 12) each week will be published on my website.
The competition is for the lockdown period.
