Ready to Learn Bundle

Our Vision

At Holy Cross we promote an environment that is conducive to learning for our students. Our comprehensive package not only aims to save parents money, but also ensures that students have access to all the necessary resources for their academic journey.

Creating An Effective Learning Environment

Through the transformative power of technology, specifically iPads, we aim to provide our students with a comprehensive and immersive educational experience. By integrating cutting-edge digital tools and resources into our curriculum, we foster an environment that encourages curiosity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. Our vision is to cultivate a generation of young women who are not only proficient in using technology but also capable of leveraging it to shape their own futures. We believe that every girl has the potential to make a significant impact, and our mission is to provide them with a solid foundation of digital literacy that will unlock endless opportunities in various fields. By embracing the use of iPads in our teaching and learning processes, we facilitate personalised and collaborative learning experiences. Our students engage in interactive lessons, explore diverse subjects, and develop skills that go beyond traditional academic knowledge. They learn to navigate the vast digital landscape with confidence, adaptability, and ethical responsibility.

These digital textbooks offer numerous advantages over traditional print versions, such as interactive elements, multimedia enhancements, and the ability to search and annotate content.

No. As part of the ‘Ready to Learn Bundle’ our school’s iPad program, offers a device specifically customised for educational purposes and includes a comprehensive web filter and managed apps. We believe that this school- provided iPad is not only educationally appropriate but also offers enhanced security and safety compared to personal devices.

The web filter ensures that your child’s internet access is carefully monitored and restricted to age-appropriate and educational content, providing a controlled online environment conducive to learning. Additionally, the managed apps on the school iPad are carefully selected to align with our curriculum, allowing your child to access a range of educational resources that have been vetted for quality and relevance. By providing these safeguards, we aim to create a secure and focused learning experience for your child, protecting them from potentially harmful or distracting online content.
