The benefit of holidays and finding balance
​
The end of the semester in December saw many students, parents and teachers exhausted, frustrated, and anxious. The holidays gave us a lovely four weeks to relax and destress whether we were in lovely Zambia or elsewhere. We don’t need the research to tell us that holidays are good for us! They help us recharge as we break routine, rest, experience new activities and foods, and meet with family and friends that we are sometimes too busy to meet with during school contact time. With rest we become creative, and more open minded as we consider possibilities now that there is time. My hope is that we are back refreshed and motivated to learn from each other, but that we are committed to making sure we find balance and make time for joy. Have a great semester!
