Where have I been?
I am attending a Principal’s Google Day and Rob Clarke is discussing the values of blogging. This has made me wonder – how long has it been since I last posted to my blog?? OMG – 10 months!! I have gone from being, at times, a daily blogger, collating resources for myself and anyone else who was interested! I used it capture my thoughts and reflective thinking, and I’ve used it as a spot to celebrate and share new learning.
So where have I been? I have been learning . . . I have been collating resources . . . but I haven’t been blogging!!
Term 1 – I enjoyed a 6 week sabbatical – investigating the aspects that successful schools of BYOD were implementing. This learning is posted on my wikispaces page. (It isn’t all organised – but it is there).
Term 2 – I have started a new role as a Principal at Waitaki Valley School in Kurow, and this learning and reflection is put away on a google sites (I won’t link to this as it also forms part of my appraisal) but it does look like this:
My start to Principalship has been a very positive one. Waitaki Valley is a wonderful wee school in a great wee community. The school is well resourced and is a purpose-built new build of only 4 years ago. We have things to work towards as a teaching team, however my team are all responsive to the direction that they are taking.
Maybe I should be blogging our journey!!
