iPads and Special Needs

Many of our parents are beginning to look at the iPads as ways of motivating, teaching and giving access to their children. We have purchased some iPads here at school and are trialling them out in different classes.
To support this idea we have created a blog to show reviews of what apps we are using and to share with our community ideas on how to use this new technology.

Check it out from the link in the menu on our main website. Feel free to offer suggestions or start a discussion.

Principal for a Day

Our School enjoys being a part of the Principal for a day programme, where senior business people from the local community get to spend the day in our school and see what is happening.
Here is a short film about the programme running in Manukau.
Keep an eye out for our Principal Diane!

Sommerville Festival 2010

Last Saturday staff, students and families converged on the school to help celebrate at the Sommerville Festival. It was a fantastic day with great cultural food, painting activities, art auctions, dance performances, music workshops, produce to buy and a cafe to relax in.

What a great day!
