This report shares children and young people’s reflections of COVID-19 during a seven-week lockdown at levels 3 and 4 during March-May 2020 in Aotearoa New Zealand. We launched an online survey which invited children and young people aged 8-18 years of age to participate, with the support of their school or community youth organisation. We wanted to hear what children and young people’s experiences of the COVID-19 lockdown under levels 3 and 4 were and how they rated their own wellbeing during this time.

This report is intended to be useful for those focusing on COVID-19 rebuild efforts and developing new policy and services as a result. Given the rapidly changing nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, the experiences children and young people shared with us about the lockdown reflect their feelings at a specific moment in time.
