Facts;

For many years since the 1980’s (“Roger-nomics Economics Rationalising Era)

Since then, we have seen in NZ a slow reduction of public services practices.

So now that we have a serious pandemic emergency health issue of Covid 19 at our doors, due to the ‘erosion’ of health practices, we must use caution here.

Firstly now we and government must listen to the experts, and the teachers, both who are at the ‘coal face’ and are fully aware of the serious deficiencies inside the early learning centres, and now who are requesting to Government that we should all stay at ‘level four’ until the overseas levels of controls for our early learning centres has been sorted.

Message to Government; ‘Be wise and be forewarned is the statement today to Government’.

  • Be wise and be forewarned is the statement today to Government.
  • Do not be pressured by the business interests ahead of public health and wellbeing.
  • Conduct full Covid 19 testing of all our citizens firstly and complete a full assessment of solid controlled ‘tracing of the Covid 19’.
  • Allow it’s support for voluntary withdrawal of children from early education and care. And to ensure immediate financial support for staff, businesses and community organisations, writes Dr Mike Bedford, a specialist in health and wellbeing in early childhood education.
