Then Kudawella got electricity, then an IT room (previous reports below)...then we have our first Integrated Videoconference with Gorseland and Kudawella! And here first is the view from Kudawella, Sri Lanka followed by the view from Gorseland UK. Look at the reaction of the children! We used our latest Alpha easiCOP Integrated VideoConferencing for the first time for real: For those of us who have followed this...it really is unbelievable - we salute these schools!

Here is the Kudawella view via easiCOP	And here is a camera view from the back of Gorseland Assembly!
Here we see the Kudawella easiCOP view...	and the Gorseland side!
Here we see easiCOP on the Gorseland whiteboard	and here a view of the laptop screen.

Kudawella get connected -December 2nd 2008

At last we have the news that we have been waiting to hear for months - Kudawella School have finally got an electricity supply!!! Kudawella had hoped that this would happen last February and some 10 months later (and nearly 4 years after the Tsunami struck) they finally have their mains connection.

Samanthi emailed to say "On Friday I will be visiting the school to talk with the principal, English teachers and IT teacher about how they are going to arrange their computers. Now we will be able to spend your kind donation for Kudawella to provide the IT facilities and internet connection. That will be really useful to both schools, as you will be able to develop your relationship directly. I will let you know how they are planning to set up IT room".

Sue Murphy is going with Jan Seaborne to Kudawella in February, so that Sue can help in setting up the IT equipment, network and webcams etc. and also teach the teachers and children how to use the easiCOP website.
