on Gaming – Fortnite
on Below is a link to an 8 minute video which provides some pretty good information of the game Fornite. It is presented by Dr. Michael Carr-Gregg and outlines some handy information for parents and some useful tips on managing your child’s time playing Fortnite. I really encourage you to spend the time watching this.
This coincides with the 60 Minutes presentation last Sunday, however, this program is a little more information based providing details on the specifics of the game and how to manage it.

Laptop Code of Conduct
on Peter and I met with the boys on Tuesday and reminded them of a few simple messages relating to the use of their laptops. These messages are below. it would be great if you could discuss this with your son.
1. Care of My Laptop
a) I have been provided with a plastic casing for my laptop and I must not remove this casing as it protects the laptop.
b) I need to look after and care for all equipment that I have been given with my laptop. This includes the school-supplied laptop bag, laptop itself and the cords that come with it.
c) My school-supplied laptop bag comes with a name tag. I must not remove this tag. If it comes off, I must report to ICT and order a new one.
d) I must not put stickers anywhere on my laptop, nor should I place anything between my laptop and the plastic cover.
e) If my laptop is damaged, I must report this damage to the ICT Helpdesk immediately – no matter how small the damage is.
f) All support for my laptop must be given by the College ICT Helpdesk. I am never to take the computer to an Apple Store or have any third party work on it.
g) At no stage will I install additional software on my laptop. If there is software that I feel I need to install on my computer I will speak to staff at the ICT Helpdesk who will speak with relevant staff and make a decision about this. I will respect the final decision made in this circumstance.
2. Playing Games
a) At times, my teacher will provide me with details or links to academic games. When given permission by my teacher, I am allowed to play these games.
b) I may only play recreational games during my free time in the dorms or in a place designated to do so. I must never play games in the Resources Centre as it should always be a learning environment.
c) I may play games that run from an external storage device (USB hard drive, thumb drive etc.).
d) I must never install games on my laptop.
e) I may only play games that are suitable for my age group. I must abide by government classification recommendations.
