Welcome...

Welcome to Geilston Bay High School's 30th Anniversary Web.

The 30th anniversary web project is sponsored by E-magine as one of their Innovative Online projects. Students across all grades were offered the opportunity to take part during E&E in second term. We needed students:

  • who were interested in computing and technical matters
  • who liked sending and receiving emails
  • who liked talking face to face with people
  • who were creative and imaginative
  • who were willing to do research

Over the 3 cycles we have gathered a team of 20 students spread across grades 7-10. We have 3 teachers contributing various skills.  Most students have met face to face in E&E time which is every Thursday afternoon for approx. one hour; several due to school band commitments in cycle 2 or other demands met online for part of the time. We set up an online communication platform to enable everyone to contribute whether or not they could meet in E&E time, one has even logged in to communicate from home. Because the project uses skills relevant to a number of subject areas, work completed in this project has helped many students in their other subject work.

We are gathering information from past students, parents and staff, some by in person interviews, some by phone and some from email links. Students used their initiative to contact the Mercury, Southern Cross Television and Huon FM radio to publicise their information quest and to locate more past school community members. When the site is up and running it will be a work in progress as the wealth of information within the community will be being uncovered for many months to come. In fact the value of such a project is that it should be an ongoing one with people able to contribute over time.

Some of the group members are shown in the image from E&E time displayed below.
