I was fortunate enough to hear Ann Milne yesterday in her Colouring in Your Virtual White Spaces talk. Several really useful takeaways from this but one thing really stuck in my mind. We are going into our students homes through the digital connections, starting today. Today, we are manuhiri so have we asked whanau if we can enter? We need to be guided by the kawa of their homes. What are their protocols? Who needs to 'open the door'? What times suit them? Is there a space for this? One of my schools has responded already - they're ringing all whanau and asking these questions today, before they conference with their students. Would love to hear how you are managing this in your schools.
