Work has already started at Eltham Primary School on their new school buildings. Not only are the students documenting this on their blog but they published their first podcast/vlog all about it on podomatic. Yahoo - very exciting. Make sure you visit their blog & podcast & leave them a comment!Megan & I revisited the long term ICT strategic plan today & it was really satisfying to look at how much has been achieved in the last 2 years. A long way to go but with a MOE assisted network upgrade together with a new block including learning centre - this time next year things will be really pumping along.
Having networked access really makes a difference but Eltham has soldiered on with the resources available knowing now that the light is at the end of the network tunnel sometime soon. Heather just by moving the computer from one side of the room to the other has discovered quite by accident today that she can now access an airport & so can get onto the internet & print. Sharon has created a 'webquest' without using the internet. This sounds interesting & will post this to Interact for sharing.

Hi Rachel
great to see the work going on at Eltham Primary School - brings back lots of memories for me as I used to teach there!! In those days it was the excitement of having an overhead projector in my class and the fortnightly delivery of 16mm films from the National Film Library that were the norm. How times change.
Time you came 'home' to Taranaki for a visit! Queens Birthday 2007 - Stratford Primary School Jubilee. Check out the photo's on Flickr & our SPS Jubilee blogspot. :-)
