Hilldene Home Hub
Welcome to the Hilldene Home Hub. From here you can access various resources we are using to support pupils learning from home. Remote education information for all parents can be found here – Remote Education Information.
Our school is using Class Dojo as a platform to set work for home learning with the aid of Google Workspace. To access the resources your child will need their Google Workspace username and password provided by the school, and be linked to their class for class dojo (please speak to the class teacher for your code).
FAQ Class Dojo
To access Class Dojo you will be provided a code for your child which you can enter into the site linked above. If you have not been provided a code please contact the class teacher.
FAQ Google Workspace / Google Classroom
To access Google Classroom:
Go to classroom.google.com (we recommend doing this on a laptop, but this can also be accessed by downloading the following apps on a tablet or phone if needed: Google Docs & Google Classroom). Please note that you may need to sign out of your personal Google accounts before signing into Google Classroom (see the FAQ below).
Login using the @hilldene.havering.sch.uk email address and password given to your child. (example: Username: username@hilldene.havering.sch.uk Password: 1234)
Select your child’s class and select ‘classwork’ at the top. This is where your child’s teacher will post activities and lessons.
Please submit your child’s work using the ‘turn in’ button within the assignment.
We do recognise that this may not be fully accessible to all families and that there may be technical difficulties accessing and completing the work online. To address this, we may provide children with exercise books that the work can be completed in (simply use the ‘private comment’ section to let your child’s teacher know they have completed the work in their exercise book). Additionally, you may upload a photo of your child’s work using the ‘turn in’ function.
