Sounds very exiting... Break is about to end, and we need to get rolling! I will talk to all the members and we can arrange a time to meet.
ReplyDeleteShould we advertise to the rest of Uni High to see if there is anyone else interested in this project?
Just let me know a good time in the next 2 weeks. We'll need to get some images of the potential work sites and substrates so the group can start thinking about appropriate designs.
ReplyDeleteI'll see what options we'll have for getting IHS teachers/students hooked in by then too.
