In need of build advice for Druid/monk

[Devonian]

I'm in need of a new lowbie char, as my only genuinely fun char has rather plateued. That char was a monk, and the combination of resilience, adaptability, and useful tricks was very fun. So I figured I might try a Druid with monk splash, mainly melee with an eye towards healing, ideally able to frontline things, to catch that fun again.

However, they have managed to change enough of druid that I'm not sure what works with that, how deep a splash to take, what PRE to shoot for or what I'd really be gaining. so any and all advice is gratefully welcomed. If anyone needs clarification please do ask.
