Library at Lunch
It is wonderful to see so many of our Year 1, 2 and 3 students in the Library at Morning Tea enjoying all that is on offer! On Wednesday last week we had computers, colouring, Bee-bots, an episode of Bluey and of course plenty of reading too!
Typing Skills are ESSENTIAL SKILLS
Typing is an essential, life skill. Here at Our Lady of Lourdes we encourage all students to work on the typing and keyboarding skills. Last week our PREP students were using Keyboard Zoo to practice essential keyboard skills.

Last week at Tech Club, Lizzy, from USQ, came along to educate us about drones and how they are being used in agriculture. In this session we were able to experience flying a drone and then looked at using software that was able to identify an object based on its colour. Where’s Wally has never been so easy to find!
