 * Senior School 2009 Term 4 - Discoveries **

This term our topic is Discoveries. Please note all children from the senior school will be presenting their work on this wiki space. This is a wonderful learning opportunity and valuable for collaborative experience and critique of presentations.


 * IMPORTANT NOTES**

Children please create any individual wiki pages by using your room number and initials for example rm1AC. Your link text can read differently, for example link text might read Alex but is linked to the page rm1AC. For every page you create you MUST use your room number to start and your initials then the name of your page. For example r1ACExplorers This will help avoid any accidental deleting of work because of clashes with names.
 * Children**

Find your individual child's work through the correct room number page on the left hand side navigation bar.
