Greetings to our Bellmere Community,

New computers coming!!

To keep you all updated, we have two new fully equipped laptop trolleys coming our way very shortly. These (plus the one that we already have) will replace our computer lab in the library. We are moving from a stationary lab to a portable option so that teachers have greater access to devices in their classroom spaces, and to ensure that our resource centre can function as a quiet library space for students and classes to enjoy. Laptops will also help our senior students to practice the skills needed so they are ready for high school.

These laptops are in the process of being imaged and connected to our network and will be in operation by the beginning of next term. How exciting!!
