Distance Learning

 Marama students have been engaging in all sorts of learning from home during Level 3 and 4 Lockdown. We thought it would be interesting to share the variety of learning that is going on 😊 Inspiring to see home baking, building, hut creation, obstacle courses, coding, drawing, science experiments - and much more!  Scroll down to see the impressive learning - we will continue to add to this blog. https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/565807011/ Custard squares and giant cookies -  What incredibly clever people you are! Many of our animals featured in our daily emails - here are just a few to share 😁 they nearly needed their own blog page!
