We hosted a special COVID-19 Q&A for kids on Drive |
|
| |
|
| Tasmanian children called up ABC Radio Hobart's Drive program with some tough questions for the experts on COVID-19.
The questions ranged from why they still have to go to school and can their friends visit them, to why they can't visit their grandparents and when the crisis will end.
Drive’s Lucy Breaden was joined by the Deputy Director for Public Health, the Minister for Education and the Children’s Commissioner to answer the questions.
The kids in your life will have the chance to ask their questions again next week too. Join us on Drive from 4pm on Tuesday 31 March. | | | |
