Hello Anna

If you are in Auckland, Wellington or Christchurch then you can meet up with
other volunteers in those cities and see what is currently happening and go
from there.

There are quite a number of Oceanic deployments that could do with some
assistance that might suit your skill set. Samoa have asked for lesson
plans. Kosrae are just starting their 800 XO deployment. There are lots of
resources but it is a matter of finding them and collating them, and in some
cases localising them. Then there are also areas where there are no teacher
or student resources. Having knowledge of the NZ curriculum means you can be
a great asset to Oceanic countries that use our curriculum entirely or as a
model for their own.

Auckland meet every Saturday at 11am at the Windsor, 144 Parnell Rise,
Parnell.
Christchurch are likely a bit distracted with the earthquake.
Wellington meet at the Cross, 35 Abel Smith St, usually on Saturdays at 11am
as well.

Some of our volunteers are helping with the earthquake response, so keep in
touch with us on this olpc-nz mailing list to check in case which ever city
are not meeting this weekend.

Kind regards
