More cabling

You just cannot have enough network points.

Our suppliers are in this week adding additional network points throughout the school.

Web cams arrived

Our webcams have arrived. These will be installed this week.

Update. 30!10/12
Webcams installed. Hardly noticeable.

Primary Depository

Our primary file depository server was successfully migrated to Server 2008 R2 64-bit over the weekend.

It's capacity was dropped from 1TB to .5 TB to free up server space. However it will easily expand if .5 TB is reached.

It currently resides on Origin but will be shunted to Horizon this coming weekend to ensure no degradation or performance issues with other servers occur.

Server Side

In order to bring Axiom inline with Hyper-V like Horizon, Origin and Olympic; services on Axiom are being re-created where necessary on Origin and Horizon.

Our DC on Axiom has been partially transferred; when our holiday kicks in we'll re-image it for the final push.

CleverTouch Rollout

With the recent purchase of two CleverTouch 65" screens; our staff can't wait to get their hands on one in their own class room; so we've been looking at how exactly this could be rolled out; after all - these things are not cheap. We can drop the price if we drop the size from 65" to 46" but that is not doing anyone any favours.

Web Cam Update

We should be taking delivery of our web cams this coming week; then during the one week holiday period to follow we'll get them all fitted in the class rooms. Teacher Usernames are ready to be rolled out.

Comms infrastructure

Additional Comms infrastructure for our school wide communications facilities were finalised today; this will be installed this coming holiday.

We expect to know which Comms solution we will be going with by February to be included in the next financial years budget if all goes well.

Installation should be during August 2013.

Procurement of HD Webcams

As part of our technology push into the classrooms, we will be kitting out all of our classrooms with HD webcams for use with Google's Hangout and Microsoft's conferencing facilities.
