Bec had a chat with Graham Irvine who is the Head of the Christian Department at Kingsway Christian College. This morning they spoke about school holiday prep. During school there are usually routines in place but when the holidays come along these routines usually get swept under the rug. What sort of routine should we have during the school holidays? Try to keep the same routine but push it out a bit. Maintian the routine but just extend the time it takes to do things. We don't want the home to become the school but maintain some sort of routine. 

Bec had a chat with Simon Creek who is a lawyer from HHG Legal Group. During the Christmas period there are so many broken families. Some of the reasons why this tends to happen during the Christmas period is becasue of the pressure surrounding family time. Who has the kids during Christmas and how long each party are allowed to have the kids. During the Christmas period be as liberal and as generous as you can when it comes to the kids. 

Bec had a chat with Melanie Jaye from Eden Naturopathy and they spoke about travel health. If you are travel abroad this Christmas then you will need to know some information.
