Great App for Parents
I have found a free Ipad app, that I recommend, for parents and children, provided by the New South Wales Department of Education and Communities (DEC).
The app provides a definition for the everychanging language associated with English and Maths, as well as some spelling and times table games for your children.To find this app, search 'Schools A to Z' in the App Store.
Facebook Trial
This term, we are trialling Facebook as an additional communication tool. Our page should answer those questions such as "Is the carnival still on, even though it is raining?" or "Is the excursion bus returning on time?" and many others.
