Workshops

MOE Conference - `Education and Effective Leadership Practice` held Waikato University 27th July - Barbara and Gareth ( Powerpoint to be added on Monday folks. Cheers Gareth :-) )

We have a had two terms of these workshops: one in term 2, 2007 and the other in term 3, both taken by Donna Dyet, our Rosetown Cluster facilitator. In each term the school allocated two days for the workshops with three sessions each day. This meant that six teachers in our school were each allocated one session each term.

The feedback that we have had from the staff that attended these workshops has been overwhelmingly positive. I think that the reason for this reaction is that it has been the one time when the **"Rosetown Cluster ICT-PD Contract"** has walked into those teachers' classrooms and said, "What can I do to help?" It has given those teachers the chance to say,"Well I really want to know how to ...!" even if they thought that it was just a small task. They have had the chance to have some "private" tuition for themselves only. This meant that they all felt that they got something useful out of the contract.

As well as that Donna got the chance to get across some ideas that she wanted to promote for the Cluster's benefit.


 * Saint Patrick's** hopes that we will have the opportunity to rune these workshops again.
