COVID-19<br />

In 2020, a cluster of Covid-19 cases was revealed in our<br />

school, forcing students and teachers to transition to<br />

online learning. In this chapter, we would like to delve<br />

deeper into how the global pandemic affected<br />

learning and our school community's wellbeing.<br />

Lessons were delivered online via Zoom and we tried<br />

our best to stay on track with our learning whilst also<br />

focusing on maintaining positive wellbeing.<br />

Anand, Year 7 Student<br />

"As a student who had been<br />

attending this school since 2017, I<br />

felt online learning was a very<br />

drastic, scary change from going to<br />

school in person. Although it was<br />

stressful as we were not allowed to<br />

leave our houses, it taught me to<br />

become more independent as my<br />

teachers weren't there physically to<br />

help me with my work.<br />

<br />

Learning online helped me to<br />

improve my time management skills<br />

and I was able to get the hang of<br />

spending large amounts of time<br />

alone. Overall, I believe that it was a<br />

hard time for all of us, but taught us<br />

valuable lessons as a school."<br />
