The Teachers were very proud of how Owairoa’s smallest learners slotted back into the routine of Distance Learning during Auckland’s second lockdown.
Our Owairoa Teachers were well prepared and had learning activities ready to go. Again our focus was on the well-being of not only our learners but also their whanau so with this in mind many of the activities were hands on fun experiences for the children.
The Junior School Teachers also challenged themselves to develop their own IT skills and had online meetings/lessons with their classes. The children learnt how to join a Microsoft Teams session and how to mute and unmute themselves.
Although the distance learning was a positive experience the teachers and children are very pleased to be back to face to face teaching.
