澳门六合彩资料 one of the State's leading regional schools
(article as appeared in The Goondiwindi Argus 7/8/2021)
For more than 100 years, 澳门六合彩资料 has forged a place as one of the state's leading regional schools, with a rich academic and boarding history, regularly featuring students in the top 10 of the state in subjects in the HSC.
This is the first year of an innovative distance education program, dubbed e澳门六合彩资料.
The program delivers education to year 7 students right into their home in real time.
澳门六合彩资料 currently has 11 students from areas of the state such as Narrabri, Broken Hill, Barraba, Tibooburra, Whitecliffs, Walgett and Sydney.
The idea sprang from demand after 澳门六合彩资料 recognised some families needed flexibility and increased efficiency in the delivery of distance education, according to 澳门六合彩资料 deputy principal, Mark Doran.
Rural families were also wanting solutions for children who weren't quite ready for boarding, he said.
In the program students are provided with the technology and learn in a supported, connected environment alongside other students studying the same way.
Next year e澳门六合彩资料 will continue with year 7 and 8 students, with a view to expanding to year 9 in 2023, providing a pathway to boarding in the senior years.
澳门六合彩资料 student Caitlin Reid is loving the change in her distance education delivery.
She lives about an hour east of Bourke, halfway between Nyngan and Brewarrina and is currently in year 7 at e澳门六合彩资料.
"Using e澳门六合彩资料 allows Caitlin to have access to the teachers who deliver the lessons over Zoom ... the benefit to her learning is that she gets instant feedback, correction and encouragement and learns much better that way," her mother Heather Whigham-Reid said.
