Term 4 Reminder.
Hi everyone
I hope you all had a well-deserved break over the holidays.
With the year flying by I would like to remind you that there is still time to place orders and have the items delivered before the end of the term.
If you are looking at ordering for the start of next year, I urge you to get your orders in early so that you can choose when you want the delivery to happen.

A Thought… Leadership
A Rich Seam - How New Pedagogies Find Deep Learning by Michael Fullan & Maria Langworthy
This report is about three new forces that are converging to break open prodigious learning possibilities. The first force, 'new pedagogies', springs from new learning partnerships that emerge between and among students and teachers when digital tools and resources become pervasive. The second,‘new change leadership’, merges top-down, bottom-up and sideways energies to generate change that is faster and easier than anything seen in past efforts at reform. The third,‘new system economics’, makes the powerful learning tools and resources that accelerate the first two forces more affordable for all.
