Think it over baby assignment – Part of this subject is the possibility of taking home a baby simulator overnight or over a weekend. You receive a mark for how well you look after the baby and also for the written part of the assignment.
Alternative assignment – if you choose not to take the baby home, you will need to complete an alternate assignment which will be given to you.

Work should be completed by the end of class each week unless extension is given by the teacher.
Folio’s will be collected approximately every 4 weeks for assessment. At the end of each topic we will complete a whole class review on the
topic learnt.
