Some light reading for you...

Kia ora

We have added some links this week for you to have a look at. We know that you will have lots of questions and we are keen to hear from you.

If you are thinking it, so are others - so please email your questions to us (Lee  principal@hoonhay.school.nz or Jo principal@ola.school.nz) or add a comment on the blog. Next week we will answer the questions for you.

First and foremost the best device your child can have is a good teacher. We know this. You can have all the devices you like however if the teacher is unsure of how they can be used to enhance learning - improvement won't happen. Therefore we intend to ensure that our teachers are prepared and confident.

Our focus will be readiness rather than devices. This first link focuses on good teacher practice. While it's written for teachers we believe it is a good article for you to see what is going on behind the scenes.
