The Lockdown

 The Lockdown and Online Distance Teaching and Learning 

What an unforeseen situation! The students left with urgency and a sense of anxiety. It is not to say that I wasn't but I have to work franticly to ensure that all learners at Te Wairua Pakiki Learning Space ( years 4 -8) has a device to access learning during this time (66 learners). Within 3 days, devices reached every single learner.  What's next then?

In term of readiness for this situation, it wasn't hundred percent, however, there is satisfaction, knowing that our learners can use their netbook and can access the learning site to various degree. 

Recalling a Lead Teacher Meeting, in the past weeks, Fiona, has alerted all of us to this situation. It helped preparing the staff and myself too. So our new learning journey began.
