[Yr11 Information Technology] for Mark K....

Thu Feb 14 10:32:22 EST 2008

Hi Mark, 
I found this outcome and altered it a bit to focus it on people with
special needs - visually impaired.
Can you please have a look at it and tell me what you think of it as a
whole.
Thanks, 
Jenna

keeps some of the young bucks easily at bay! (including those in

a Ulysses club membership perhaps as I now qualify (I am now an 'old
