Curation of on-line feeds


I found this a very interesting watch after a discussion with friends when camping about receiving targeted advertising over the holiday break. Might be of interest, certainly raises questions about the quality and bias of the media our students are seeing.

Writing PD

Robyn and I were lucky enough to go to the Writing PD session with Sheena Cameron and Louise Dempsey. A fantastic opportunity to step back and look at our writing programme overall, and make sure we are using a shared language of instruction. (and the lunch was yummy too...)

Manaiakalani Orientation


As usual a wonderful way to start the year, meeting all our new teachers joining us, and a reminder about the who, what and why of it all and how we fit into the bigger picture. Thanks Fiona, Dorothy and all those involved in the day.
