Grassroots

Grassroots was a School Net program to encourage students and teachers to integrate technology in effective ways and to share their work on the Web.  Grants were available to support this work.  This program has now been discontinued by the Federal Government. Please take a look below at the projects that received grants in the South Shore.

2003/04 projects are now completed. Congratulations to the teachers below and their students on completing their projects.
