This week we are sharing with all FBS learners and whānau our Distance Learning Timetable. This is similar to the timetable we have at school and is intended to support our learners to have in place a routine that they are familiar with.
We also are providing DL activities for our amazing learners to work on. These activities are linked with our 6 FBS Values and each value has 6 activities. The activities are for ALL FBS learners from Years One to Six.
Our learners are asked to complete 1 activity from each of the 6 values each day, they can do more than one if they want to.
Don't forget to share your awesome work with your class teacher.
