New Year plans
Coming back to New Zealand I am full of energy and have a great many new
ideas to implement in programmes here at home. Our main concern is to support the
development of Right Hemisphere / emotional sensory learning-through-touch to neutralise
over-stimulation of Left logical /computer and IT related input. Our concern in
2013 will be to promote CMC as a Hauora programme into the mainstream education
system.

School No 3 in Marki City.CMC at Home project

The
pilot programme initiated by Monika Mokrzyszczak & Eva Scherer “CMC at Home”
is making progress. Once a week before
going to work a group of parents involved with the project is visiting kindergarten to receive a massage from their own
child. These parents will be involved in “CMC
at Home” from next year. More Research

Another great news item is the master degree thesis

25th October – a meeting in Poland with teachers
from kindergartens using regularly CMC . We weren’t sure how many people would
attend and anticipated about twenty. We were delighted when 56 teachers turned
up! All were very interested in the
course and we received very uplifting and constructive feedback. Because of a
shortage of time I was only able to visit a few kindergartens practicing CMC
