Surviving through lockdown

Our Office Manager, Michelle, has a small family of three and one of their daily activities involves cooking a meal from around the world. Each night they take turns pulling a country’s name out of a hat and cook a meal from that cuisine the following night… well, an interpretation at least. So far, they have enjoyed: French, Italian, Spanish, Irish, Vietnamese, Israeli, Caribbean, Moroccan, Greek, and Thai. Yum!

Ian and Janet are making most of their bubble in Otematata. Leaving Christchurch, the week before lockdown they have been living a quiet life where going to get the press and collecting the mail are the highlights of their days.

Susanne, in the Adviser Support team, also kept busy during the lockdown period and celebrated Easter making Swiss traditional Sunday bread, creating bunny shaped creations, which were virtually shared between her extended family around Australia & Switzerland. Also, a first: celebrating a lockdown birthday, having fun in the kitchen… keep calm & bake on.

Our bright and cheerful receptionist, Lauren, is in lockdown with these two adorable miniature ponies.

The Wescombe Family Bootcamp routine includes 200 push-ups and 200 sit-ups. They will be one fit family at the end of the lockdown period.

The Sequeiras live opposite the Red Zone (Horsehoe Lake) and enjoy walking and admiring the beauty of autumn. Being a family of six, we’ve cooked, cleaned, gardened, prayed and shared far more especially with no distraction and nowhere to go to.
