Half Moon Bay resident Simon Robinson takes a break from painting his home to be captured with his wife and daughters in a quick family portrait by Times Newspapers on the eighth day of Covid-19 lockdown across New Zealand. The family have been busier than expected at home with Simon painting the house, mum and lawyer Helen trying to work from home and both trying to manage the three children. Their girls attend Pigeon Mountain Primary School, Bucklands Beach Intermediate and Macleans College, all of which are running different online terms so they all have holidays at different times, which brings its own challenges. The family are also enjoying making use of the House Party app with Happy Hour every afternoon, for the adults of course.
