To game or not to game…??

Now that the Gaming Room has closed many people have asked the question…. where can I play computer games in school at lunchtime?

Here is the answer:

  • The cafeteria and all hallways are tech free zones
  • Devices are permitted in the Library for doing assignments or personal research (not for games)
  • Computers may not be used outside at lunchtimes; they should be away in your lockers

The simple answer is to take a break from playing games whilst you are at school. Use the time to be present with your friends, play games or sports inside or outside, read, chat or discuss the learning from your classes.

Questions? Please ask!
