Halinda is part of the P.L.A.N

Halinda is now part of The Mt Druitt P.L.A.N.

Halinda School is situated in the Mount Druitt District. We have a cohort of student tech users that range from k-12. Our staff are lifelong learners. We not only participate in Interactive Computer Technologies for education, we have established a record of constantly refining that use of technology for the enhancement of outcomes built on curriculum.

Some schools in the area are developing their journies in ICT and forging links with other learning communities in the Western Sydney Region. Halinda is a part of this.

The Mount Druitt Professional Learning Area Network is a project that is growing. Teachers developing and sharing ideas, building access to the curriculum, increasing engagement in its delivery and linking know-how are working across schools.

Halinda sits on the steering committee of the P.L.A.N. along with lighthouse schools and curriculum innovators. Expect to see more of this professional network of schools working in partnership.

Behaviour & Learning Project Wiki



Halinda is using wikis to develop professional learning.
This wiki helps us further establish a sharing of understandings around the work we do.

Wikis help learners contribute as a team to the collective knowledge of our group. As a resource wikis are updatable (providing realtime peer review of content) and discussable (allowing reflection and generation of ideas).
