OCSB At Home Learning Resources

Our school board has created a website with resources for families to support learning at home. Parents and students in grades K-12 can find resources using this website! I have added the link to our 'IMPORTANT STUDENT LINKS' for easy access in the future.





A Great Website for Families

CBC Parents is a great website with a variety of activities for all ages! There is a 'Spring Scavenger Hunt' on the site, which would be a great outdoor activity for your child!

Here is the link to CBC Parent website and I will add it to our 'Learning Links'.
