Grade P-2 students = Approx. 2.0-2.5 hours daily (including 30-45 minutes of play-based learning and physical activity)
​
Grade 3-6 students = Approx. 3.0-3.5 hours daily (including 30 minutes of physical activity)
  • The usual timetable will not apply.
  • Break times will be 10:30-11:00am and 1:00-1:40pm for EVERYBODY working remotely – students and staff.​

DAILY PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
​
It's expected that all students will have at least 30 minutes of physical activity every school day. Ideas for physical activity:
  • Use the spaces, equipment and toys in your home and/or yard.
  • Go for a walk, run or ride with a parent - in line with social distancing.
  • Use the P.E. activities in your year level's specialist tasks. You can look at other year levels too and try those! 
  • ​​Join an online exercise class. "PE with Joe" is one example (which is harder than it looks!)
