'We were lucky enough to get a small Jack Russell puppy just before the shutdown, which my dad calls a wellness puppy and my mum calls a panic buy'
We asked Victorian school students of all ages to write us a letter describing their thoughts and feelings about the past few weeks and telling us how they were staying busy spending their holidays at home. We were inundated with responses.Seven-year-old William Grant and his twin sisters Maggie and Louisa, 6 have been playing with Lego.The first two weeks of the holidays were tricky because my twin sisters and I had to entertain ourselves because our mum and dad were busy working.
We were even allowed to have our unhealthy holiday breakfast cereal. I love all these things about being at home but what I really really, really, really miss is seeing my friends.My mum had an operation about two weeks ago and she's high risk of getting coronavirus. That means that my sisters and I must self-isolate to protect her. Say for instance we go to the shops we have to bring hand sanitiser and put it on after touching anything, even a piece of fruit.
