We encourage all parents and carers to provide an iPad for their child/children from Year 3 onwards. Tallebudgera’s iConnect program is a highly effective educational approach that supports the implementation of the Australian National Curriculum. The rich learning environments of our iConnect classrooms allow students to engage with personalised learning paths and demonstrate their learning creatively. Your child’s iPad will afford them a redefined learning experience. We know that iConnect has enhanced the teaching and learning opportunities in our school.
Children who participate in the iConnect program use a balance of approaches to their learning, making the most of digital technology while also developing the necessary non-device related skills (e.g. handwriting, mental calculations).
