Our Prep students have completed their first nibbler projects, showcasing their newfound woodworking skills and creativity. With their trinkets and wooden creations proudly delivered to some special people, we have moved on to an exciting new venture - learning about virtual reality (VR) with Bogo.
Through Bogo, our students will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in a virtual world, engaging in fun activities with Bogo. I am thrilled to see our Prep students embracing these learning experiences, and know that their journey into the world of VR with Bogo will be both engaging and transformative.

With each project, they are not only enhancing their coding skills but also becoming more adept at effectively utilizing their laptops.
