ICT
In Room 4 we are lucky enough to have access to a number of Chromebooks, ipads and desktop computers.
We will be making the most of these valuable resources in all learning areas as a research and presentation tool. ICT is integrated into all curriculum areas to assist learning and presentation, not as a separate or stand alone subject. In addition to this we will make use of the library.
