💚 Do you know Conscious Kids’ Rule #1?
Many of you that have sent your children to Conscious Kids over these last 7 years know our most important and unshakeable rule - HAVE FUN! If children break any of the other 4 Conscious Kids rules (as our poster), they will consequently break rule # 1.
Our Conscious Kids rules are not only applied in our Programmes, but they are also intrinsic to how we work as a team and relate as human beings.
A few days ago I watched this great Ted Talk from Catherine Price about the importance of adding FUN moments to our days and prioritising FUN in our lives.
She is one of ours!
As the week starts, we invite you to watch this TedTalk and rethink your concept of having FUN. www.ted.com......
Catherine says, (and we experience and share):
👉 True Fun = Playfulness + Connection + Flow
👉 Fun is a feeling, and it's not an activity
👉 It's not just for kids
👉 Fun is the secret to feeling alive
👉 True fun produces this visceral sense of lightness and joy
👉 Fun unites us.
👉 Fun also makes us healthier.
At our programmes children are given the opportunity to FLOW (time + space + freedom), to be PLAYFUL (unstructured and child-led play) and to CONNECT (with themselves, others, and the natural environment) = REAL FUN!

Government targeted relief
My sister is a Pensioner living in Wellsford. She has an appointment at North Shore Hospital tomorrow afternoon at 2.45pm. The 160km round trip would cost about $50 which is too expensive. Instead, she will be taking a free shuttle leaving from Wellsford at 8am tomorrow, so will have almost 6 hours wait at hospital . It is not only families with children who are struggling. I do understand that not everyone can be accommodated in the relief, but just saying.
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
41.1% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
57.3% No, I enjoy it
-
1.5% Other - I'll share below
Cost of petrol
Can someone explain why we are paying higher prices for petrol seemingly for stock we already held before it became more expensive to buy? If we are supposedly holding approx 50 days of reserve fuel I must assume that we are still using current stock .
