Infoblitz homework website for primary school children

A post from the school library list serv from Wendy Ballard, librarian at Greenpark Primary School in Tauranga.

"Last year I received an NZEI Support Staff Scholarship to create a Website of Online Resources for NZ Primary Schools. Some Intermediates and Group Special Education have also expressed an interest. I'm excited to announce that it is now live on
www.infoblitz.co.nz

Please check it out - it can be used free from schools, home or any Internet connection. This website directory has been created with Kiwi children in mind and is safe, manageable, educational, high-interest, has visual appeal and showcases NZ. It can be used to research class & homework curriculum topics as well as children's hobbies and interests. There is a special link for Teachers and one for Librarians. I welcome suggestions & feedback. If you like the website please bookmark it & spread the word by sharing it with students, parents, teachers and librarians. I've tried very hard to exclude direct weblinks to sites with non-educational games, arcade games, advertising overload, and inappropriate content. I look forward to hearing how Kiwi students are Blitzing their schoolwork with www.infoblitz.co.nz "
