Dear Parents / Carers,
Online Learning Opportunities
As you will know, online and home learning will be continuing (before and after the February holiday and In-service Day) for ELC and P1-3 pupils until 22nd February, and for P4-7 pupils beyond that.
For children at home teachers will continue to provide learning in Google Classroom and plan to provide weekly Google Meets. They will also keep looking for resources that pupils can interact with in different ways.
I am sure you are all very busy managing the demands of home learning but please also be aware of the following activities and opportunities that are available.
