Make your own festive jumper in Keynote? Nice. Add your own selfie and print a tiny version of you wearing that festive jumper? Next level. Great work P6C! ❄️
Today we designed Christmas jumpers using the app Keynote 🎄Then we merged pupil selfies so it looked like they were actually wearing their designs 📱 @digilearnfalk.bsky.social

As the sun sets on the last full day of term, here is a wee view of (just some of) our year in numbers for academic session 2024 - 2025. The Digital Learning Team at have had brilliant time working with Falkirk schools, teachers and learners - we can't wait to do it all again next session! 🙌✨

An excellent example of how pupil digital leaders can support 'The Churn'. Even better that the idea originated with a P6 who has been through the process! P6/P7 have such a wealth of knowledge to share with the P5 about to receive their devices, brilliant to see this shared and led by learners. 🙌
P5/P6 transition ahead of the @connectedfalk.bsky.social CHURN ♻️ Idea from a P6 Digital Leader at end of term 1 after going through it herself, wanting to better equip younger peers. She spoke to classmates & they planned 2 lessons on key skills. They used ConnectedFalkirk colours to stay on brand.
Today, P6 R15 visited P5 ahead of the CHURN in Aug, when P5s get 1:1 devices! ✨P6 created & led themed sessions, teaching key skills like screenshot, split screen, markup, Notes app, AirDrop, Microsoft Word tools &more! All through 2 fun, interactive sessions! 👏🏼🍎📲
