Juniors switching on new computer.

Most children enjoy working with computers. This results in a high motivational factor and encourages concentration and involvement with a piece of work. Word Processing challenges each child at whatever stage of development.
We have 13 computers and a number of other technical resources, which are always readily available to the children throughout the day. We are also connected to the Internet, and the children can make use of these resources when appropriate. We hope that all our children leave school with keyboard skills and a reasonable level of computer literacy.
