Web Creation Holiday Programme

At both the Riccarton Learning Centre and the South Learning Centre the classes were full for the web creation programme run during the school holidays.  The students investigated the use of an online web creation tool at webs.com and created sites based around a personal interest.  As well as gaming sites (always popular) we had sites created about all sorts of interests as diverse as airplanes, care of cats, Heart kids in NZ, family trips, family sports and confessions of a shopaholic!!
