School of the Air
Many of us may be surprised to hear the name “School of the air”, but there are over ten of them in Australia. Alice Springs School of the Air is one of these in the Northern Territory. The school provides an educational service for about 120 children living in Central Australia.
Students of this school live far from each other, so they don't have normal lessons in classrooms, but they study at their homes. They get lessons from their teachers through post or e-mail. They have to work five or six hours a day, five days a week. They send their work to the teachers and discuss it over the Internet. They can borrow books from the school library, and the books arrive by post. They also take part in outside classroom activities such as sports and games.
