Learning@Home

Families are to be congratulated for the many adjustments that have been made in these changing circumstances we find ourselves in. We have had between 80 to 85% of students Learning @ Home over this past week. We acknowledge that it is often difficult to keep your children focused and on task with their Learning@Home. We hope you can enjoy a break from schooling your children over these holidays. Have a picnic in the back yard or try out cooking this week's recipe.

Term 2 Learning Arrangements

If the situation with COVID-19 remains as it is currently, in Term 2 we will be continuing with the options for students to either Learn@Home or attend the College. Should this change over the holidays we will notify you via email.
