My Lock Down 2021
Hello everyone, today I am going to be telling you about how my lock down has gone so far. As most of you would know New Zealand got into lock down on the 17th of August, Tuesday. For our work in Miss Alpers class, we had to do a scavenger hunt and how our lock down is going. Today I will just be telling you about how my lock down is going. Here is what I write about it.
This lockdown has been pretty boring. There’s not much to do and nothing is really open to do either. But I do enjoy the homemade food we make at home, for some reason we are making even fancier food than normal. I have been keeping up with Covid to see what has been happening lately and I think Jacinda Ardern is doing amazing. Personally, lockdown isn’t the worst but I wouldn’t want to be stuck in it again.
I hope you enjoyed this blog post. How is your lock down going (if your in it)? Thank you for reading my blog post and I will hopefully see you on my next one. Bye!
