Helping the rural community.
Tony_B, Aug 2022
With the introduction of the internet has made it easier for teachers to interact with their students.
Very interesting
Marilyn_D, Apr 2021
A great insight into the school of the air.
No school happening at the time so they showed a class recording
Response from Host, Apr 2021
Thank you for visiting us Marilyn, I'm glad you enjoyed your visit. When it's the weekend or students are on holidays, we strive to provide you with an example of what our school does by showing our pre-recorded lessons.
