Congratulations to the 9 schools who submitted entries into the 'On with the show, this is IT" competition at the Mount Gambier Show in 2003. There was a total of 177 entries into the three competition categories of Web Construction, Computer Graphics and Presentations. Students from years 1 through to 12 entered. There were that many entries into the years R-5 Presentations category that we had to allocate two computers to show these to the public. This is a brilliant effort considering the necessarily short timeline that we all had to work with this year - something that we are able to fix for 2004.

While speaking to members of the public it was great to be able to point out the presentations made by some of our regions lower primary grades. Many commented that they found it difficult to use a computer, even turn it on and where extremely impressed with what 'the kids' could do. Many also praised their teachers, realizing that they had to learn these skills so that they could help the students. They were quite consistent in saying that "IT is the way of the future". So well done teachers and students.
