P6C and Mrs Barker had a fantastic day at the Apple Store in Buchanan
Street, Glasgow on Tuesday 11th June. Events Co-ordinator Andy Unger met
us in St Vincent Street when we arrived by coach. The children were
then warmly welcomed in proper feel good style by rapturous applause
from staff on both levels of the store and were delighted to receive
fantastic bright yellow "Fun is in Session" t-shirts. Callum, Callum and
Naomi led us on a tour of the store and introduced us to staff from the
Genius Bar who gave an insight into how appointments can be made for
personal enquiries and assistance. Usually the team provide workshops
for schools but Andy had arranged a very special session allowing P6C to
demonstrate what they have learned in their 1:1 pilot this year and why
they love their iPads! Staff from around the store gathered to see the
children's presentations and all were bowled over by their confidence
and expertise. P6C were then presented with certificates and very cool
USB wristbands, posing for photographs on the stairs and at the entrance
to the building.
It was a fabulous trip, where our children really made us proud, and an
excellent celebration of all their hard work and achievement. Thank you
to Andy and all the staff for going out of their way to accommodate us
and to Mrs Nowell for accompanying. More photographs on the main website.
