Twitter

This a closed group so only people we have agreed can see what we tweet.Last year we were able to keep parents informed of what was going on and post pictures.Parents were able to join in some of the activities and also inform us when one of the student’s hamster had passed away.A free way of keeping in touch and parental feedback was very positive last year.If you want to be involved then you need to send a request on Twitter and then also email me your username so I am confident that it is you.
