Digital Afterschool Club is back

An update on Digital Natives project from Mark Walker

I’m pleased to say that the Digital Afterschool Club will run after the half term break.

  • 3.30 – 5.00pm, Thursday 8 November until Thursday 13 December [parent's showcase event on 20 December]

It will cost £35, with a discount for anyone who is also attending the school’s Afterschool Club on the same day [just tell me when you book].

Booking forms are attached and circulating in school – it’s first come first served but I’ll do my best to fit in everyone who attended last year. If it proves popular enough we may also start another session.

Based on feedback from last year we will have a slightly smaller group this year and we are also trying out a partnership with the Afterschool Club, to see what links we can make to make the club more sustainable.

HELP NEEDED
We were really lucky last year because we had a couple of people who came along as volunteers. It means we have an extra adult [or two] in the room, which means the children can more easily work in groups. You don’t need any digital skills – although whatever you bring will be very handy – and you don’t need to come along every week.

Finally, if you haven’t seen it there is a video of what we did last term at http://vimeo.com/50851849. You need a password to view it, which is 1elmgrove
