Interactive Whiteboard

"Richardson Primary School is the first school in the ACT,
and probably Australia, where the total school community,
the students, staff and parents, has embraced a new
approach to the use of ICT, which enhances the holistic
education of the students"

Richardson Primary School has been integrating Interactive Whiteboard technology into classrooms since early in 2002.

Since this time Richardson Primary has been acknowledged both nationally and internationally as a path finding school with regards to the use of this technology to enhance student learning.
