Meri Kirihimete (Merry Christmas)
As we edge closer to Christmas and look back at what the year has bought us and what this holiday season will involve, I’d like to commend you all on your resilience. You have pushed through some of the most challenging times and have continued to open your hearts and homes to tamariki (children).
If you haven’t managed to attend one of our new trainings, face to face or online virtually, it’s been a privilege bringing the new content and learning to caregivers across Aotearoa. Hearing your stories, your struggles, and your hopes as you connect with the ‘aha’ moments during the sessions, it’s a privilege! Each term we will be rolling out a new topic. Keep an eye on our website and training mailouts.

I know in our homes the holiday season can be over stimulating, bring up anxieties or see an increase in challenging behaviours. Here’s an article we wrote to support your tamariki during Christmas time:
Ngā mihi o te Kirihimete me te Tau Hou

We have made the decision to close the Otago Support Facebook group and merge members with the Lower South Support Facebook Group.
This is so all of the Lower South caregiver members are in one central place and you are able to connect with one another as well as receive support and information from your Regional Coordinator.
