Learning from Home

Many thanks for your support over the last few weeks. We have been overwhelmed with kindness and generosity from our school community and we are grateful for all your messages.

Learning at Home Resources

Duncraig Primary School staff, in collaboration with other schools, have put together some Suggestions for Home Learning. This document is designed to assist families to provide learning opportunities up until the Easter school break and throughout the holidays should you wish! This is in addition to the Department of Education Learning at Home website resources.

The Duncraig Primary School Learning from Home document has been created by Duncraig Primary staff including specialist teachers, with input from Department resources and other schools who are currently sharing resources on various sites. 

We have tried to make these resources closely align with the resources we currently use. Activities have not been broken into Junior, Middle and Upper Primary, but the Department’s Learning From Home website is categorised by year level. 

In the event of school closure, teachers will deliver content through their own classroom Connect pages.

About our Resources

This collection of activities and links have been collated as a guide not as a curriculum. 

Although we feel it’s important to maintain an academic routine while children are not attending school, we understand that this may be difficult. 

The links have been selected to support student engagement, but it is important to remember that they should always be viewed by an adult for suitability before student access as we have no control over ads and pop ups. 

Some of the websites also require logging in or creating accounts. We have tried to keep the majority of the resources free from this, but there are some that are really useful that do require the creation of an account. 

Tips:

  • We would recommend saving this document to a personal device.
