STUDENTS ATTENDING ONSITE REMOTE LEARNING WITH COLD OR FLU LIKE SYMPTOMS

If your child is displaying cold or flu like symptoms, please do not send them to Onsite Remote Learning. In the interest of everyone’s health and safety, if your child has cold or flu symptoms please keep them at home until their symptoms have cleared.

I have instructed all staff managing onsite remote learning to contact parents if their children have cold or flu like symptoms and they will need to be collected from school.

 DAILY GOOGLE MEETINGS FOR STUDENTS

Please find listed below the important protocols for all students to follow when participating in Remote Learning Google Meetings.

• All students 3-6 are expected to participate in a daily Google Meeting with your teacher except when they are rostered onto working at school for Onsite Remote Learning.
• If students are not attending or participating in Google Meetings, teachers will contact the parents to ensure that their children are present for these as important learning expectations are shared.
• No students are to attend or invite themselves into other grades Google Meetings
• Students are not to attend Google Meetings from their bed; they must be dressed appropriately and set up for their meeting in an appropriate space. Children are expected to be tuned in to the information being shared and not using these meetings as a social get together.
• Teachers will have a daily catch up with vulnerable students who may be struggling with the learning provided. Teachers will check in with parents wherever possible.
• Parents we want you to understand that it is ok to participate in off-site remote learning on your time frame. Remote Learning has to be suitable and adaptable to all the different family dynamics. We do not want parents stressing because the can not fit learning into a 9.00am-3.00pm time slot. You do what works best for you.
• Please share any parent feedback with your child's teacher or with any of the schools leadership team on (03) 5623 7222. If you are having, any issues or concerns please us in the loop.
• Please remember that we will do our very best to support every student in our care as well as support all our parents through these challenging times.
