Faith Christian School has an extensive range of co-curricular resources available for families, from musical instruments through to educational games, science and stem kits, along with a resource library of fiction and non-fiction books to support your child’s learning.
In addition, our Resources team works with the Curriculum team to distribute academic workbooks to our families each Term. Learn more about how we can support your family’s learning below!
Paper-based workbooks are a key component of learning in Primary. If your student is in Prep to Year 6, you will receive a pack of printed workbooks and some support materials, where appropriate, in the Post for the start of each term.
This is included in school fees and will be sent by our Resource Team to the postal address on file (no opt-in necessary). Please view your current address information in the Sentral Parent Portal to ensure it is correct.
Lesson delivery at Faith for students in Years 7-9 involves unit workbooks (digital and printable) accompanied with live video lessons. Printed workbooks are optional.
PDF versions of Faith workbooks are accessible on the class pages in Learning@Faith at the start of the term and can be edited using in-built software provided by Faith. If you wish to print, you can download and print at home or order them to be printed by our Resource team (fees apply).
Year 10 students complete some subjects using digital unit workbooks (printable upon request), whereas other subjects are taught using Learning@Faith only. Some subjects require external textbooks (paper or digital) which can be purchased though our partnership with Box of Books.
