How we support students to learn at home.

In situations where school lockdowns occur, teachers provide learning resources for students to use at home.

Access to these resources will be through class websites or through DoJo and SeeSaw communications. You will receive communication from your child's teacher about what they are doing and links to their class website

Home learning is supported 'Department for Education' resources 
that cover two weeks of study in English, Maths and HASS for each year Level.

Links to class "Home Learning" websites or DoJo or Seesaw communication platforms will be provided to parents by email from the class teacher.



In designing at ‘Home learning’ programs we ensure they are aligned to the Australian Curriculum.

Learning at Home - Timetables

How home learning programs operate will be explained by teacher's through their website, or other communication methods, and parents can familiarise themselves with their operation.

Learning at home - a shared responsibility.
Teachers have a responsibility for providing students with a planned learning program but the responsibility for ensuring that students engage with programsvwill  rests jointly on caregivers and the student themselves. The Department has established responsibilities for both which are listed here.
