New blog. Generally about high school student international exchanges. Will be focusing on how schools can benefit from the programs and how they can assist the students who come to their schools.

I'm interested in learning from teachers and administrators regarding their experiences with student exchanges and how they see such programs in light of their educational philosophies and responsibilities.

Theme: exchange students, exchange student programs, high school students, educational best practices, international friendships

I have spent the past 40 years as a Junior School English & Phys Ed. teacher. I specialised as a computer teacher about 18 years ago. I was formerly at Kingswood College in Grahamstown, Eastern Cape.

I have been at Springfield Convent Junior School in Cape Town since 1996. My Teacher/Librarian and I moved into a beautiful new media centre this year where my workload has increased but so has my job satisfaction.

A Cape Town teacher's rumblings
I write Cape Town computer teacher’s rumblings. My aim is to share resources I’ve found useful, lessons which have been great and to document interesting family happenings. I began blogging in 2007 on WordPress and have been encouraged through Maggie Verster’s 2008 blogging course to revive my blogging skills.
