On the first day of term I was fortionate to visit Bishop Druit College at Coffs Harbour. Through a university contact of mine (who is now the Director of IT) I was able to get a tour of the college and talk with a number of teachers.

Bishop Druitt is a K-12 college based in the Coffs Harbour hinterland. the school has similar student:technology ratios to Wollongong Diocese schools however little use of laptops

.

The primary school are using interactive whiteboards and seemed happy with their role in the classroom.

Probably the thing that really stood out was the outstanding physical environment and the pride that the students had in that environment.
