Middle Syndicate Blog

Thursday 15 September

Dear Parents/Caregivers,

We are excited to finally have our blog up and running.  We hope to use it as a way to share what is happening at school, with those at home.

The blog can be accessed via our school website. Simply click on the Middle Syndicate Discovery tab, on the left had menu to view. If you and your child wish to comment, scroll to the end of each post and click on the comments tab. Below the comment box you can click name, and then type in your name, so we know who the comment is from. All comments have to be moderated before they appear on screen, which may take a day or so.

As a word of warning, there is a range of inappropriate content which can be accessed when navigating around the blogging website, which is beyond our control. Therefore, like all internet use, we suggest that you supervise your children while on our blog. This is also the time to let your child’s classroom teacher know if you oppose to your child’s picture being on the school website. We ask for this to be put in writing please, so it can be kept on file. Also, we ask that parents be mindful of the blogs they follow, as this information is made public to the children.

During ICT lessons the children will be getting a better understanding of how to use this technology. We are also reminding the children to use their proof reading and editing skills when posting on the blog.

Thanks again for your on-going support, we are all looking forward to sharing this exciting opportunity together.

Kind regards,

The Middle Syndicate Team
