On Tuesday, we met with Mike to discuss where we are currently with our ICT project and where we wanted to go next. We talked about our finances, purchasing of new equipment, staff survey, mathletics, our wireless system and many other issues. In the afternoon, we met with a sales rep, from one of our local firms. We discussed the cost of installing a more robust wireless network and mobile devices. We had a very productive day.

supportive staff
Great to hear staff helping each other out with ICT. I often hear small conversations going on and hear staff giving each other tech tips as well as classroom ideas! Fabulous and worth a mention!

Road trip to Palmerston North
On Tuesday this week, Peter, Mike & myself along with our ICTPD cluster set off to visit two schools in Palmerston North. We visited Whakarongo School and Riverdale School in the morning. Both schools have made huge leaps with their ICT use in school and provided us with some inspirational ideas. We were able to form some clear ideas of where we see our ICT progressions in the future. In the afternoon we listened to a Principal from a rural school in Palmerston. They were in the second year of their PD project. Once again, we learnt a lot from this and took on board plenty of new ideas.
On our return to school, Peter and I met on Wednesday afternoon. It seemed appropriate to spend some time reflecting upon the progress we had made in school in our project. We have now arranged a meeting with Mike to consolidate these plans.
