Remote Learning Resources for Parents
The purpose of this page is to share remote learning resources that may be helpful to parents while students are learning from home. Most of these resources are more relevant for parents and carers of K-6 children.
This page has both education and Faith resources for families. This page will be updated as new resources become available.
Thank you to our friends from the Diocese of Lismore Catholic Schools for sharing their Faith resources and ideas for family Prayer.
