Distance Learning
School holidays have been brought forward and are now from Monday 30 March until Tuesday 14 April.
Distance learning starts from Wednesday 15 April. School will not be open and staff will not be on site. Teachers will be available to support distance learning from 9am until 11am each usual school day, and again in the afternoon from 1.30-2.30pm. This is the time that teachers will be posting activities via Seesaw and responding to student work.

Seesaw is a platform for student engagement. Teachers can empower students to create, reflect, share, and collaborate. Students “show what they know” using photos, videos, drawings, text, PDFs, and links. It’s simple to get student work in one place and share with families, and nothing is shared without teacher approval.
Seesaw will be used in many of our classes for our Distance Learning programs. Through Seesaw, teachers are able to provide activities on the website/app which allows the students to use creative tools to take pictures, draw, record videos and more to capture their learning from home.
It is important to note that families only see their own child’s work and any posts made by their teacher. And all posts made by students and comments made by families must be approved by the teacher in charge of the Seesaw class before it goes live on the page, making it a very safe and friendly platform to use online.
The videos below explain how Seesaw has been used in a class by teachers and students.

If your class is using Seesaw, your teacher will email you with TWO codes. You can use them to log on through the apps below or through the Seesaw website.
|
SEESAW FAMILY: This is for parents to create your own account. This will allow you to see what the teacher posts, comment on your child's posts/activities, like their posts and message the teacher directly. Once you have the app, create your account and scan the QR code for your child's portfolio to link their account or accounts if you have more than one child at our school. |
|
SEESAW CLASS: This is also called your child’s Home Learning Code. Home learning codes allow students to sign in to Seesaw, view their journal, add posts, complete activities they’ve been assigned, and receive class announcements from their teachers. Students do not see the work of other students in the class. |
