Welsh School IT Support meetings/catchup

[gjefferies]

Hi,

 

Are there any events coming up where School's IT Support meet up?

As I am looking for ideas around Teachers using tablets, IWB replacements etc

 

I'm happy to hold it at my school(Pontypridd) if needed?

 

Anyone else up for a catchup.

 

Thanks

 

Gareth

I'm up for any excuse to get out of this place for a few hours, Crickhowell South Powys

[gjefferies]

Cheers Nick, and dates better for you?

[nickbro]

I'm good for any date really

[PotNoodleTech]

Yeh sounds good. Any time as long as it's not next week (Estyn are in!)

 

I'd like to see Ponty high as it's quite a new school, always makes me drool

[gjefferies]

Cool spread the word...

 

Pontyhigh isn't that new..... The main building was built in 1984, with a new lower school build around 7-8 years ago.

Hopefully with the Challenge Cymru money we can bring some of the infrastructure up to date.

You could always gatecrash the HwbMeets ... or have a chat with @RichPowell about an ANME event in Wales.

 

Let me know when you are having one and if I'm in the area I would like to pop in ... taking my work hat off, of course.

Not sure we have enough red carpet in stock to cater you dookie!!

I'd rather die than attend any more Hwb meets. Would be great to meet up with other techs though.

 

At a social distance ofc

Necro-posting .... 5 1/2 years!!!! Is that a record @Dos_Box?

[curiousoranj]

I'd be up for a meetup (SD of course!) if anything is arranged!

 

Also bookmarking!

[PotNoodleTech]

So we've been trying to meet up for like 7 years now!

 

I'm up for it in the latter half of the year!

 

Failing that how about a teams meeting on HWB?

[Olliekai]

We don't talk about Hwb.

Did anything ever come of this? I've been working solo since July, it's been pretty lonely ...

[Olliekai]

Don’t think so. Seems someone says it’s a good idea every year or so but it never happens.

@SayLHP @Olliekai as with the EduBytes socials that were a thing before covid, someone needs to decide to run it. That someone includes you!

 

It’s simple… pick dates/times that suit you as organiser and start a survey. Most popular date wins. Ask people to PM an email address.

 

If you wait for someone else to do it, it will never happen.

Says I don't have permission to view form

[PotNoodleTech]

Can't open the form either.

 

A Welsh meet up would be a sight to behold we've been on about it for as long as edugeek existed!

🤦♀️ some half asleep idiot didn’t set the form to anyone can view. I’ve had coffee and fixed it now.

[Olliekai]

That’s because I did a stupid. Fixed now.

[SayLHP]

Done! Thank you @Olliekai

[pooley]

Done, thanks.

[LukeRowberry]

Done. I like the whatsapp group idea think that would be great.
