AudienceAudience
St Joseph's in Boronia and Holy Saviour in Vermont South are two schools who are joining together in this venture. The stakeholders (audience) are primaryschool children 5-12 years of age and classroom teachers who will be leading and monitoring the content of the pages. Whilst initially it will be led by individual class groups at each school, we envisage that eventually the work will flow across grades at each school. Parents will be the secondary audience, joining children at home and participating in investigations, discussions and trials, with the possibility of extending to a wider audience.
