Objectives are beginning to get complicated with the range of students we now- those who have just joined, those who joined us last week and those who have been here for the entirety!
So newcomers your objective for this week is to finish the Blog Requirements (things that you must have on your blog page)
People who joined us last week you must also make sure you finish the Blog Requirements and start on a project (those who work hard will be able to finish a project by the end of the week!)
Those who have been here for 4 weeks now, you should know the score. You need to finish at least one project by the end of this week.
Any questions on any of this just come and find me!!

Computer Access
Hey Everyone!!!
Hope you are enjoying lines so far- I know that a lot of you desperately want time on the computer to check your emails and surf the net in general......
So, I've decided out of the kindness of my heart to let you use the computers during lunch and free time before dinner. I'm going to give up my breaks so you can use the computer rooms so appreciate!!
The computer room will be available whenever I return from lunch (the second half of the lunch period) and also after your last lesson of the day before dinner and I'm afraid its first come first served.
Andrea :)
