[Offtopic] Ipads

[Roland Gesthuizen]

The Westall Secondary College iPad trial now spans year 7 and 8. You can
coordinate a visit with the Principal David Tyson. I keep hearing great
things from Ringwood so give them a first look over as they were a source of
inspiration for my new school. :-)

Regards Roland
