As things have changed drastically this year, there will be no Mother’ day
cards or chocolates at the door, since there will be no church
service, instead, I have decided to make a donation in lieu of cards and
choccies to Fundisa in Winterton which is near our holiday home, in the Drakensberg. �ere is a desperate need
for food in an area of great poverty. My sincere best wishes to all Mothers hope that you will be able to enjoy the day, which many will not be
able to do.
S�ay sane, Take care, Lots of love

condolencesOUR SINCERE CONDOLENCES TO JANET AND RORY MILLER ON THE DEATH OF THEIR CLOSE FRIEND
STEVE ARCHIBALD
Lauren, Daniel Dylan and Oliver Acton
Family of the week
Your family...
We are Lauren (Mom), Daniel (Dad), Dylan (11
year old son), Oliver (6 year old son). Lauren is a
doctor working in re-insurance and Daniel
works in tech. Dylan and Oliver are in Grade 5
and 1, respectively, at St John's College. We live
in Waverley and we have 2 Labrador dogs. Daniel
grew up in Durban (Pinetown Boys' High) and
Lauren grew up in Pretoria (Pretoria High
School for Girls). We've lived in Johannesburg
since 2006 and have lived abroad in the UK too.
We enjoy spending time together and visiting with
family. �e boys love board games, riding their
bikes, playing with our dogs and watching fun
movies.
Your connection to St Columba's...
Lauren grew up in St Columba's in Hat�eld,
Pretoria. Daniel grew up in a Church of England
setting. Once the boys were big enough, we sought
a church that we could attend. We'd heard good
things about St Columba's Parkview and came to
visit. We found it warm and welcoming, so we've
stayed!
We are incredibly fortunate and blessed. We've
been able to work from home and our employers
encouraged us to do so before the o�cial
lockdown started so we have been at home for 8
weeks now. We have a nice garden, so we can get
some exercise (Daniel ran a 15km "trail run" in
the garden). We miss our friends and extended
families and look forward to the days when we
can be together again.
Your situation during lockdown...
Any insights gained during this
period...
- Mostly that we are truly blessed, and that we
realise that there are people whose experience
during lockdown has been very di�cult. It's
important to have empathy and understand the
complications that this brings to peoples' lives,
and to help were we can.
- Teachers are truly amazing. In the beginning,
we had to learn how to teach the kids, and re-
learn how to do some of the work we're supposed
to teach them. �e teachers were new to this
mode of learning as well, and they've evolved so
quickly with compassion and calmness. �e
experience of schooling from home is now much
easier and less stressful.
Take care, Daniel and Lauren
