Welcome

Welcome, Parents and Students to our KC blog spot.

I recently observed one of my colleagues using a blog to communicate with parents and students in his class and thought - What a great idea... I may have to steal that!

So here we are.

I plan on using the next few weeks as a trial, to see if this is an effective means of communication and sharing for our class.

Some examples of posts might be:

* Reminders for excursion or performance payments

* Reminders of upcoming events within the school

* Birthday messages

* Congratulations to individual students for Silver Awards or other achievements

* A place where parents can ask open questions (visable to the whole group) to clarify class procedures. eg. Homework

* Lost and Found notices! (We've had a lot of cases lately where children have accidently taken eachothers hats/jackets/etc.

I'm sure this means of communication will work for some, but maybe not for all. Hence, the trial!

Thanks for your anticipated support
