I don't know what is cheaper after all...

I was totally surprised by having to pay for the Internet also. You are very lucky to have a teacher who is into using the Internet -- looks like your class is enjoying using it. @Cointha no problem re-comment on your blog.

Thanks for the comment you left on my blog! I am quite surprised that students in some schools actually have to pay to use the internet! At our school we just turn on the computer and go without having the worry that the school is going to charge us internet fees! I cant imagine the price it would cost for us as we use sooooo much internet at our school, especially in our class because Mrs.C is very into technology and computer programs and good websites/blogs/wikis etc. I dont think it's a good idea that students should have to pay because it will limit there time on the internet, when exploring the net can be very educational! Especially when you go on student and class blogs that you know have people running them that are on a learning journey! Well that's all I have to say about the paying of internet in schools! Hope they think twice and maybe stop charging the money! Even more so if they are in a public school! Bye!! From Cointha! stubc08 Hi Sue Waters!

But I hate the idea that they think charging for use of the school Internet is a good way to go! @Olivia Happy to be talking with you too @Mrs Cunningham I was totally amazed when she told me this. For her it has been in place so long that no one was questioning the fact that it didn't make sense. I believe that only Victorian schools are doing this in Australia. CRAZY!! @Julya Well I do agree that we pay taxes and that should cover it but unfortunately the Government’s look at the fact that it can’t cover everything.

Finally I have found at least one thing the British education system is doing properly in terms of technology all schools get their internet etc free....phew! Hi Sue,
