If School Closes to a Year Group bubble
If school or year groups are required to close, teachers will set remote learning lessons for your child to access on Google Classroom as per your child’s school timetable.
Go through the following checklist to ensure your child is able to access their learning:
Does your child have access to the internet?
If not, please email your child’s Head of Year
Can your child login to their School Gmail account?
Remember to use your school email to communicate with your teachers. All of your teachers’ email addresses can be found here.
Zoom
At the moment, Woodside is using Zoom to hold assemblies for students. Zoom is a great tool but, like all websites, must be used responsibly. Please read the guides below to make sure that you have taken the proper precautions and safety measures before you use Zoom.
