Our Deputy Principal, Mr Ralph has done an outstanding job at building up and maintaining so many new ICT devices for use by teachers and students around the school. All but one of our classrooms now have an interactive whiteboard. Our Library has had a makeover with new computers being installed along with a complete rearrangement of the furniture which was conducted by Mrs Gabrovec (she gave up many hours of her own time to complete this). We now have a bank of laptop computers, a bank of netbooks (mini-laptops) as well as 15 iPads. As of last week, the Year 7 class also received a bank of desktop computers which are housed in the clasroom and the wet area of the Visual Arts cluster.
Along with this additional hardware, Mr Ralph and Mrs Gabrovec have been working to assist teachers become more confident in using ICT within their classroom. Many of our teachers are now exploring ways of incorporating ICT in their day to day teaching.
Mr Ralph is also conducting some parent information sessions to inform parents of the benefits of using ICT as well as to explore issues related to student safety in cyberspace. For more information please arrange to chat with Mr Ralph or send him an email
