Supporting gifted students during the lockdown

Dear Families,

As we enter the third week of the lockdown we embark on the next phase of  -  online
home learning. The lockdown can be challenging for gifted children as they may
exhibit increased anxiety, sadness, intense feelings, and out-of-the ordinary behaviour.
This may be the case for children also not identified as gifted. Please click on the tips
(link below) if you would like to get some tips to support your child during this lockdown.
This has been developed by the NZ Association for Gifted Children. The link below also
includes how you can support your child at different developmental stages. 
The National Association for Gifted Children (USA) has also developed 
a tip sheet for supporting your gifted child during Covid-19.(Please click

We hope this message finds you feeling well and safe in your bubbles.
