NWSE March Newsletter – Activities for Everyone! – Part 1
Dear NWSE Community,
We want to extend our deep appreciation and gratitude to you as all of us join together to navigate the current COVID-19 (coronavirus) situation.
First and foremost, we need to remember that this is a temporary situation. In that sense, let’s remain forward-thinking and positive while doing what we can to meet the challenges at hand in the meantime. So we suggest taking this opportunity to discover new ways to engage with other members of our exchange community.
As school closures and extended spring breaks are giving you significantly more time at home, we have teamed up to provide you with a list of fun activities!
