Distance Learning
Well we are back into Level 4 lockdown and our distance learning site is up and running.
Our distance learning programme is a mix of “online” and “offline” learning, we have developed a website that is available to everyone and can be used by everyone. We don’t expect you to become the “teacher” more of a support person for your child’s learning.
There is no pressure for you to use the website, it’s a guide for you on what you can be doing with your child if you want to. We have provided your child with enough independent work for them to do alongside you. We appreciate you too will likely be working from home, so we do not expect this to be followed to the tee.
The suggested timetables and activities are optional, feel free to make the timetable work for you and your family or run with your own ideas.
Zoom Meetings
Morning Zooms are a time for teachers to maintain classroom relationships and to set up children’s learning for the day. Teachers will check in with students to talk through the daily timetable and answer any questions students may have.
Teachers will email out a link for the daily Zoom beforehand. Team Pukeko and Tui students should be encouraged to read through their timetable for the day before their Zoom, so that they are ready with any questions that they may have about their day’s learning. Zooms will run for 15 minutes and teachers will organise a fun activity for Friday’s Zoom.
Teachers will Zoom with their classes Monday to Friday at the below times:

Here is the link for Silverdale School’s Home Learning website. Please have a look and get familiar with the site. If you have any questions please let your child’s teacher know.
We look forward to working and learning with you on our new/old journey of learning.
Together we got this!
