I never heard of that. A special teacher name.
Is that usual in Dunedin?

Just nine??? Here in the Netherlands only schools with children with some
disability doe have such small groups. In my group there are 32 children
and I haven't the biggest group on my school.

Well, the children of my group can't yet speak and write in English; they
have to learn their first English at 11. (Mine are 10 years old).
This year my collegues are introduced in working with the PC; from our national gouverment we've got one PC at each 60 children. On that PC there's
Windows and all kind of Window applications, but no communicationsoftware yet. I'm very busy in lobbying for buying a modem. If I succeed, I can install some terminalprogram and get a link to the K12 network which I recieve at my private computer. (I'm a sysop of a bulletin board).
My collegues do want to correspond after that all is done, but untill that
time corresponding between children of your and my school is hardly possible
in echomail.

I feel very pity telling you that my school isn't ready yet for such things,
but please do greet your children from me.
And if you personally would like some corresponding with me, that's ofcourse
