Digital Technology
What a great term we've had in Digitech so far! Our Year 7's are showing great interest in their program, many of whom are studying Digitech for the first time in their schooling career. We also have new programs running in Year 9 and 10 Digitech and am hearing of the many successes amongst our students in these elective programs.
This term we introduction the Year 7 eSports Academy and Year 11 Information & Communication Technologies programs. Students are excelling through these courses and are continuing to develop new skills and techniques.
We continue to have great success in our eSports challenges this Term at the various FUSE Cup competitions. We still have many more competitions organised throughout the remainder of 2023. I congratulate all who have participated so far and invite any other students with skills in various games to contact Mr Simmons to express their interest.
Mr Sogathur has also been working hard with our Coding Squadron this Term, with a record number of students signing up for the program. The passion of the students in these programs is evident and it is great to see the teamwork and individual skills they all bring to the program.
I look forward to the continued success fo our students across the Digital Technologies programs at Ripley Valley SSC and thank all students involved for their contribution to the curriculum and extra-curricular activities.
