Photos to be saved on the Yearbook server – Primary

Dear Primary Teachers,

This year we will be saving all the photographs of events and class pictures directly on the yearbook server. This will make it easier when compiling the Yearbook, as well as ensuring that all photos are centrally stored. The network paths are shown below:

RP – smb://10.3.1.1/Yearbook/Year Book 2015-16/Primary/PHOTOS

CP – smb://10.5.1.1/Yearbook/Yearbook 2015-2016/PRIMARY/PHOTOS

Within the photos folder you will see subfolders for all the events that will take place during this school year. You will also find class folders here. If a folder for a particular event has been missed out, please inform Amita.

Please do not create any folders to store photos on teachers pub.

Please remember to take lots of pictures and save them directly on to the yearbook server.

Please contact Amita if you have any questions

lynda.com – PD website

We have some great news to share with you. All staff will be getting subscription to lynda.com.
This website is hands-down one of the best sources for online learning. For years, lynda.com has put informative and clear video-based training in front of people who need it. The videos let you work at your own pace, and the website is designed extremely well to help you keep track of what you want to learn and what you have already learnt. The site’s software tutorials are particularly useful when trying to brush up on a program you haven’t used in a while or learn the particulars of a newly released version of an old favorite. It is also a wonderful place to learn about popular and essential computer programs like Photoshop, Microsoft Excel and iMovie in addition to picking up business principles, money-management advice, and much more. They also have a handy app for your mobile devices.
You will receive an email before the holidays to sign up for this website. Please remember to do so as the link expires within 7 days.

Yearbook update

As discussed during staff meetings, this year the yearbook will be made to look like a mobile device. For this, the 4 sides of the yearbook will be rounded, so the yearbook printer has taken all our indesign files and is editing them to show the borders. He will be giving the edited files in a day or two.

Once we receive them, we will place these files on the yearbook server and inform you of the same. Along the same time we will give you the proofread printout of your page. Thereafter you will be able make the changes on your page along with the feedback that the parents give you regarding their child’s name.

Yearbook cover competition

The yearbook cover competition deadline is coming up soon – 30 th April. Please could you remind your students to give their designs to Amita at CP or Alex at RP.
