When the campus is temporarily closed La Garenne teachers continue to provide learning materials and activities that maintain the LGIS planned curriculum. Learning continues to emphasize interaction, inquiry and creativity. Learning in the Primary provides experiences that are aligned with the curriculum. Thank you for your help and support.

 

Students

  • Establish a daily routine to support your learning.
  • Identify a comfortable, quiet space so you can work effectively and successfully.
  • Check your email and Google Classroom frequently.
  • Take breaks, play, rest, be active. Try to complete the work outside if possible.
  • Communicate proactively with your teachers. Ask questions, but be patient when waiting for a response. If a teacher emails you, respond in a timely manner. You can use email or, if permitted by your teacher, Google Hangouts or Google Meet.
  • Communicate with your friends, classmates and tutor group regularly.
  • Be mindful of your workload and wellbeing. If you have any concerns, contact your class teacher.

  • Help your child develop daily routines.
  • Encourage your child to take study breaks and to take part in physical exercise.
  • Be mindful of your child’s wellbeing; speak to them regularly about concerns or challenges.
  • Choose a learning location that is suitable to be seen by peers and teachers if students are using video tools.
  • Create opportunities for your child to interact with peers to maintain connections with their school community.
  • Ensure your children are dressed appropriately when using video tools.
  • If there are siblings simultaneously online, choose locations that do not cause noise interference when recording learning or video conferencing.
  • Communicate any concerns to your child’s class teacher, or head of primary via email.
