Merry Christmas

As the school year draws to a close, Mrs Grant and Mrs Turner would like to wish all our Team 8 families a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

We are in awe of how much these children have grown and progressed. Thank you for letting us have them from 9-3pm. We will miss them terribly next year.

Team 8 are VERY excited about Santa. 

Here are some pictures they have drawn for you.

Is Technology Good or Bad?

Today I asked Team 8 to reflect on what they have learned about technology. I asked them if they thought technology was good or bad. Here is a short video I took of some of the children sharing their thoughts...

Please leave us a comment with a question you think could help us to better understand the implications (good and bad) that technology brings to the world? We will answer them with a reply.
