VIRTUAL REALITY AT ST JUSTIN'S

This year, the Year 5/6 students are embarking on a Virtual Reality (VR) journey using a program called CoSpaces. CoSpaces provides students with the ability to demonstrate their knowledge in new ways by building virtual interactive worlds, simple or complex, that are approachable for primary aged students. 

In order for students to experience the world they have created in virtual format, we are seeking donations of old iPhones that you are no longer using at home.

The iPhone must work but does not need to be a new model. We would really appreciate any donations in order to allow our students new and exciting opportunities in 21st century digital learning.

We will be collecting the devices over the next 2 weeks so please send them in via your child's classroom bucket, preferably in a bag/envelope with attention to Mrs. Wickens (Digital Technologies Leader).
