1 - 1 Devices (Writing today)




Ashton - Chilling out and enjoying a quiet space to get on with his writing.


Children in the Control Room room - All focussed and on task!


100% engagement!


Success Criteria on the Interactive Whiteboard.


Liam, get on with your writing...


Room 78 is NOW 1-1!

Miss Calitz and I are so excited.  Today we discovered that we now have 1 device per child, when the children who have their own device bring theirs!  Writing today was brilliant.  The children were incredibly engaged in planning and preparing their persuasive writing piece.  They were so engaged that lunchtime came and not ONE child even mentioned the time and they were all heads down and getting on with their learning task.  Proud moment! #awesomeRoom78

I love this story.  This is an awesome photo of our youngest ever female athlete to win a medal at the Olympics.  She was just so excited to get to the Olympics and there was little hope of her getting into the final, let alone, get a medal.  When she got into the final, she was thrilled and couldn't believe it!  The shock on her face when she won her medal was amazing....


This is her realising she has won a medal....
